Bishop Daniel Timotheos Yohannan

Bishop Daniel is a global Christian leader who serves as president of GFA World and is a consecrated bishop of Believers Eastern Church. In his role as President of GFA World USA, Bishop Daniel serves as the primary link between thousands of Christian workers and missionaries serving throughout Africa and Asia and the rest of the church worldwide.

Ministry has been the lifelong passion of Bishop Daniel. Growing up in the home of the GFA World founder K.P. Yohannan, he has traveled the world serving the church with his family for over 40 years. He has lived in the U.S. and on the mission field. At a very young age, Bishop Daniel was overcome with compassion for a lost and suffering world. Sensing his own personal calling from the Lord, he dedicated the rest of his life to those who had not yet encountered the hope of the Gospel.

After earning his theological degree, he served on the mission field, helping to establish a local church as well as provide pastoral leadership at the seminary. Three decades of ministry have only deepened his passion to serve the world with the Living Water and a cup of cold water in the name of Jesus. In 2008, Bishop Daniel began serving as vice president of GFA World USA. Bishop Daniel is especially committed to seeing GFA World take the hope of Christ to new countries meeting the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of people in some of the most desperate parts of our planet.

He and his wife Erika, who serves alongside him in ministry, have three children. While traveling frequently, he resides at GFA World USA headquarters in Texas.
