Abram accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior at the age of 12. On February 18, 1973, he was baptized by Bishop Diedrich W. Dueck. His baptism scripture was from Colossians 2, 6-7: “So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.”

He married the love of his life Leni Neufeld on October 7, 1973, and celebrated 49 years together in 2022.

In 2014, the Kröker family moved to Canada.
