Leo Arun Kumar, being born in Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu, in a Roman Catholic family, lived a life far away from God till the age of 19. While he was in his final year of graduation at Kodaikanal Christian College, he was influenced and attracted by the love of Jesus Christ through a young Evangelist who came and joined in the college as his junior. He was very much excited to see the way in which God was leading that evangelist and by divine appointment, they both became good friends. At that point of time Leo got many chances to see the power of God and the way in which the young generation was being raised up by God for His glory.

The year 2005 was the kick starting season for his spiritual life. He thought to myself, “If God can use others, why not me? Even I am His child for whom He died.” By taking this to mind, he laid aside my past and started seeking God earnestly day and night to be used in the kingdom of God.

On one fine night when he was in his usual prayer, the Sovereign Lord Jesus Christ Himself appeared to him with his Loving Kindness and showed him the way He (Lord) was bruised for Leo at the cross. At that exact moment, the power of God filled him and transformed his life completely. After that incidence he committed his life completely to Jesus Christ and dedicated himself to live for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Lord showed Leo, His abundant favour by appointing and anointing him with the Holy Spirit and made ways for his desire of serving God to come true. The first place where God used him was at “Polio Home, Kodaikanal” which is a rehabilitation centre for the physically challenged. There God gave him a word from (Matthew 7:13) and the Lord graciously enabled Leo to share the word of God without having a Bible in his hands, though he had never read that phrase before. There the words spoken in Zechariah 4:6 was fulfilled in Leo's life too. After sharing the word to those children, his seniors and friends who were there, came and told him that it was a powerful message. This encouraged Leo and he was convinced that God had put His words in his mouth. A few months rolled on where God started using him in house prayers, college prayer cell and personal evangelism.

At that point of time, He moved to Bangalore for his project and there God started using him with the gifts of the Holy Spirit and during that period, He would have sleepless nights waiting for God, in His presence, to bless him with the nine precious gifts of the Holy Spirit. Being strengthened by the Holy Spirit He was taken to many families and individual lives, where God did mighty miracles and many healing took place. He was even called ‘Pastor’ by some families though He was not. This gave him great excitement and motivation to serve the Lord with all his strength.

In Bangalore, God reminded him about an incident that happened a few years back in the same city, when he was working on Pastor Benny Hinn’s crusade as Project Coordinator (at that time,  he was not a believer). The incident was this – He went to Bangalore for his Second Year Project (2005) and the company he worked for was an event management company. Amazingly, that company got the contract to carry out Pastor Benny Hinn’s crusade at Bangalore and he was appointed as the Project Coordinator. He was on the field before a month of the event. During the preparation process, many believers across India came to that ground and prayed over that place. A prophet from the south of Tamilnadu (Kanyakumari) approached him and said “I saw the wings of God upon you, God will take you and use you mightily.” On hearing this, Leo was not excited; instead he laughed at that man o and said, “You could have seen the wings upon me because that's the name of my company also, and I am not the right person to be used by God.” Now, when he looked back, he regretted for his ignorance and realize that, what was spoken through that man of God was true and has indeed taken place now.

As the Lord has promised, now He has started using Leo in many churches, educational institutions, families and in individual lives at different places, irrespective of denominations, in the lives of those who are in desperate need of God’s help. As God has promised through (Isaiah 25:8) that “the Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces and I will use you for that very purpose”, even to this day, God is faithful in using Leo through Leo Ministries for the same purpose. The Lord Jesus Christ has raised many testimonies through through Leo Ministries and we believe there are a lot more to come.

This is just the beginning and there is a long way to go for the glory of God.
