Father Berchmans comes from an interior small village in south eastern Tamilnadu and was trained as a Catholic priest. He accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior and began preaching the gospel in the mid-1980s. The Lord gave him the talent of composing and singing songs of praise and worship, and this talent has attracted thousands of people to Christ not only in the state of Tamilnadu but in other parts of India as well. Father Berchmans, led by the Holy Spirit, has become a very effective tool of the Holy Spirit to usher in a revolution in evangelism in India and other parts of the Tamil speaking world.

Father Berchmans preaches the gospel through singing and dancing. He has already composed more than 350 songs, and the content and most of the words in his songs are from the Bible. Father Berchmans prays, walks with the Lord and receives his songs from the Lord. His melodies and tunes are all a great blessing from the Lord to us. Tunes are utterly simple and very elegant, taken from folk traditions, easy to remember, and easier to sing!
