He has been married to Marilyn since 1986 and they have two grown children and three grandchildren with more on the way.
His recent years of ministry have been particularly blessed with opportunities to grow and to be engaged with pastors and other church communities. God has provided opportunities to bring glory to Him in the city and in friendships with brothers and sisters in Christ across denominational and racial lines.
Together with Marilyn, he has also had the enormous privilege to be in partnership with the global Church. They have served with Hope School in Antananarivo, Madagascar, Mission of Hope in Haiti, and a shelter building ministry in Agua Prieta, Mexico. It is an honor to serve Christ together and to be blessed by brothers and sisters in Christ throughout the world.
He enjoys riding his bike and scuba diving and is looking forward to developing new relationships throughout San Jose and beyond.
Gabe is local to the Bay Area, playing and coaching soccer and wrestling. After running away from serving the church, God got him much like He did with Jonah, and after his own efforts of achievement in degrees in English Literature and Education and teaching in Junior high, high school, and community college, Gabe began serving in primarily Baptist churches as a renaissance man, preaching, teaching, working with leaders, and serving God’s people in wide capacities. His heart is for strangers to become neighbors, neighbors to become friends, and for friends to become family, with no greater family than the family of God.
One such stranger was Gabe’s wife, Lori, whom he married in 2011. They are lucky to have a neat, social daughter in Karis, and a son in Kaden, who loves construction vehicles. They are a family that loves being together and joining their lives with others in every season.
