View in browser Lane Family March Prayer Letter Dear Pastor and Church Family, Recent Open Doors: We are so thankful for the continued open doors that the Lord provides for us each and every week. Through preaching, teaching, music, as well as the many opportunities to pass out tracts and share the gospel, we are thankful that God has "counted us faithful, putting us into the ministry". Thank you for your continued support and many faithful prayers on our behalf. Please pray with us as we continue to seek God's perfect will for our family and the guidance of the Holy Spirit as new doors open up. Upcoming Projects | Events: Preparations for the upcoming July pastors' conference have continued, and each week provides fresh projects for us to work on. Thanks to our two employees handling repairs and grounds maintenance, we are able to turn our focus in the direction of other developments. We are still praying that the Lord provides new and unexpected outreach opportunities and that we continue to be an impactful witness and encouragement to the individuals the Lord brings across our path. We are also so excited to update you on the Sponsor-a-Pastor project. Since our last prayer letter, over ten sponsorships have been purchased by individuals and church ministries alike. This project is vital to our conference as we have a myriad of other expenses to cover, from shipping containers of Scriptural resources and import tax to travel fares for the conference speakers to printing the in-depth workbooks and training materials. As many of the attendees are hard-pressed for funds and are compelled to pay border fees, we do not wish to burden them with additional expenses. If you have not heard about this project, here is a brief synopsis. For $100, one pastor’s expenses will be completely covered for the International Pastors' Conference. This cost will include lodging, food, utilities, and many materials and evangelistic resources. For this upcoming 2024 conference, we are expecting an average of 200 pastors and men of God to attend. This leaves nearly 190 sponsorships left to fill. We ask that you prayerfully consider this project for your personal or church missions outreach. In the upcoming weeks, we will be getting our brand-new website online filled with information, resources, recent updates, and pictures of our ministry. This will also give you access to any video updates that we put together. We currently have a video review over 2023 covering all of our international endeavors that we are so excited to share with you, and it too will be available on our new website. Thank you so much for your continued faithfulness and constant prayer support. We are so blessed to have prayer warriors alongside our family and look forward to being able to update you on future ministry opportunities. For His glory, The Lane Family

May Update Dear Pastor and Prayer Supporter, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.” II Cor. 9:8 A Call to Rejoice! We are thrilled to report that this upcoming July is going to be the 6th annual International Pastors Training Seminar held at our facilities in Danli, Honduras. Our entire family has been busy working on the conference center grounds, as the tasks that need to be completed soon are numerous. The past few weeks have included scraping floors, installing doors, building rock walls, and constructing an open-air auditorium—just to name a few. (Thank you, Pastor Jaquith and Westgate Baptist Church in Tigard, Oregon, for donating the funds to build this much- needed open-air auditorium!) We are incredibly excited for the upcoming conference and are expectant of what God is going to do in these pastors’ lives. We have recently begun to pre-register pastors; and there has already been such an incredible response. Over 200 pastors are currently committed to come, travelling from all over Central America and surrounding countries to attend this annual training conference. Our goal each year is to help each individual pastor personally sharpen and grow in every area of his personal and ministry life. Sessions will include teamwork, organization, soulwinning, administration, discipleship, separation, devotional life, as well as a myriad of other topics. Our facilities provide the lodging, food, and teaching materials; and it is a blessing to say that other ministries (such as BLMF) have partnered with us to provide additional evangelistic resources such as Bibles and tracts. Our belief and our prayer is that this year will yield the greatest impact— bigger than ever before! As God continues to move in the lives of these pastors, we see a furthering in their personal ministries all across Central America. Our pastor reminds us that if we can help and invest in a pastor, then he can go home, helping and investing in his people. Though we may not be able to travel to the numerous Central American ministries every year, we have the privilege and opportunity to bring them to us and take the time to personally invest them. And in turn, they can go back home and be a better soulwinner, a more committed husband and father, an encouraged pastor for his people, and a stronger leader for his church. A Call to Prayer! Our family is so thankful to the Lord for the many blessings He bestows. After ten months of waiting, our containers have finally arrived at the Honduras port—praise the Lord! But we do have an urgent prayer request concerning that. We received the invoice for the containers, and they are over three times the amount originally quoted, coming in at $18,000. That does not include import taxes, and we do have setaside funds for that; however, the invoice amount is so much more than we originally expected. Please be in prayer that the Lord will provide the funds quickly for the unexpected shipping expenses as we know He opened the doors for us to have the containers shipped in with the much needed personal and ministry supplies. Our second prayer request is that we are able to raise funds for extra materials for the Pastors Training Conference July 11-14th. We are needing 300 whole Spanish Bibles ($30 each), 300 Spanish discipleship materials, and additional funds for thousands of more tracts and New Testaments for the pastors to take with them back to their ministries. These pastors cannot afford these resources (the majority only make a few hundred dollars a month) and many travel far distances to be at the conference. Our prayer is that we have the ability to provide them with as many resources as possible to take home. As always, the Lord has graciously provided for our needs every year at this conference, and we greatly anticipate what He will do again this year! Once again, thank you so very much for the honor of representing you on the mission field of Honduras and thank you for your faithfulness and continued prayers!
