He became the head of the Basel Mission center in Vaniankulam. The burden of running the schools and the small-scale industries of the Basel Mission in Vaniankulam became a stumbling block in his goal of independent ministry. In 1896, he left the Lutheran Church and Vaniankulam and went south without an aim. On his trip, he saw a prayer center in <a href="/wiki/Kunnamkulam" title="Kunnamkulam">Kunnamkulam</a> and met Paramel Itoop, a new believer. He decided to start his work at Kunnamkulam, an ancient bastion of Christianity in India. </p><p>To be part of the local community, he learned <a href="/wiki/Malayalam" title="Malayalam">Malayalam</a>. The community in Kunnamkulam received him as one of their own, as he wrote and spoke in Malayalam. On April 1, 1897, he married Harriet Mitchell,<sup id="cite_ref-BA_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BA-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> an <a href="/wiki/Anglo-Indian" class="mw-redirect" title="Anglo-Indian">Anglo-Indian</a> who was a teacher at Kunnamkulam.

Harriet and three children were back in Malabar Coast, while the two older children were in England. The letter he sent to the assembly fellowship in <a href="/wiki/North_Paravur" title="North Paravur">Paravur</a> in 1917 reflects the hunger in his heart for souls in Malabar. That letter contained the following words: "My sweetest treasures are in India. My heart belongs there." But his desire was not fulfilled. He suffered from <a href="/wiki/Palsy" title="Palsy">palsy</a> and became bedridden. While teaching at <a href="/wiki/Bergneustadt" title="Bergneustadt">Wiedenest</a> Bible School, Nagel had a stroke and died on 12 May 1921 and was buried there.
