Yira Coleman

My name is Yira Coleman, and I’m honored to join the surgical mission to Kenya, Africa in support of my husband, Brian Coleman, who is serving as a Surgical Technician on the medical team. I serve as Director of Channel Partnerships at Coastal Payroll, focused on building relationships that support business growth and exceptional partner experiences. I am also the author and creator of the Fruity Friends children’s faith based book series, and I enjoy serving in the children’s ministry at our church. I love to serve others wherever there is a need and an opportunity to give back. This will be my second international mission trip, the first being to Thailand with the organization ZOE. At home, family is my greatest joy, and I am a proud wife and mom to a blended family. Our youngest, 10-year-old, will also be joining us on this mission, which makes the experience even more meaningful for our family. My hope on this trip is to make an impact to those in need, be part of the hope, and support as best I can however I am needed.
