Meet the Coulstons
Charles and Darlene Coulston were married in 1964. Their daughter
Brenda is married, and they have twin daughters aged 8 and another
girl who is 6.
Charles has taught at Eastern New Mexico University and in
an extension program for Pepperdine University. He
preached 21 years in Redwood City, California, and his duties
included youth ministry, directing summer camps, directing
recreation programs and coaching basketball.
He served as
Administrator for Kenya Christian Industrial Training Institute in
Nairobi, Kenya, for 4 years, as the school grew from a startup
computer, electronics and Bible college to serving over 1200 students.
Since
1996, he has raised funds and worked closely with Kenyans in
developing Made in the Streets, a ministry serving teenagers who are
sleeping on the streets in the Eastleigh and Mathare Valley slums.
Darlene has opened two cradle roll programs in churches; she taught
Bible classes for primarily non-Christian mothers of small children
for 16 years. She taught secondary school (English and Latin) for one
year and taught Bible courses at Kenya Christian Industrial Training
Institute for 4 years, primarily Acts. At Made in the Streets she
serves as curricula director for the English and Bible programs and
she acts as an advisor to the Team members.
Their personal interests are reading fantasy literature, talking
about street kids and grandchildren, drinking gourmet coffee
together in as many interesting places as they can visit, sitting in
front of a softly burning fireplace, listening to rain patter on the
roof and encouraging growth of the church - not necessarily in that
order.
