Gene and Susan Coleman - Italy
Gene was raised in Nigeria where his parents were missionaries. His mother led him to the Lord when he was seven Susan was born and grew up in Orlando, Florida. At age 16, she received Christ while attending a Bible study connected with Campus Crusade. Being a child of missionaries, Gene was always exposed to missions. As he neared graduation from Wheaton Graduate School, he began to develop a growing desire to be a missionary. He wrestled with whether this desire was from God or whether it was just because of growing up with missions, but through various means, God made it clear that this was His leading. In 1983, Gene and Susan went to Sicily as part of a church-planting team. They had the joy of seeing a church started in the city of Syracuse in Sicily. Then, in 1987 they changed missions and went to Udine (located in northeastern Italy). They ministered there with a team until July of 2001. Realizing that the church in Udine was becoming strong enough, they relocated to Pordenone. They are now working together to build the church in Pordenone so that it can come to the point of autonomy.
