More About The Jeff Cole Family
(Established August 4, 1991)

Family Overview:

As a high school student, my family began to attend Grace Bible Church, in Port Orchard, Washington, where I heard the gospel for the first time from Pastor Bruce Kemper. Later, I clearly remember reading the Gospel of John in its entirety at home in our living room and the Lord clarifying my sinful condition before a holy God. It was then that I trust in the Lord Jesus Christ for my salvation in the privacy of my own heart. Grace Bible Church became my church home and provided a solid foundation of bible instruction for the several years to come under Pastor Bruce and Steve Shadley.

Gena was raised in a Christian home where the Scriptures were studied and taught. Gena made a profession of faith as a young person, being aware of the teaching of the Bible and the person of Jesus Christ. However, in college, where the claims of Christ had to be examined and lived out in her life independently, her faith matured.

It was at The Master's College that we met, I transferring in from Tacoma Community College, Gena having just finished her freshman year. We both graduated three years later in 1991 and were married that summer in Washington State.

After residing in Southern California for several years, we joined Corona Bible Church (now Calvary Church Corona) in the formation stages of the church. Three years later, CBC confirmed the Lord's leading in our lives into full time mission service. In July of 1994, we joined the staff at The Master's Mission and became involved in the ministry at Little Snowbird Baptist Church.

We are privileged to be able to minister the Word of God full time. We covet your prayers as we strive for faithfulness in our family, in our responsibilities at The Master's Mission, and our ministry at Little Snowbird Baptist Church.
