CRBFC supports the work of Brant and Mary Lane who answered the call to serve full-time with Teen Missions International in 2021. The Lanes, based in Merritt Island, Florida, are originally from South Carolina and previously served with Wycliffe Bible Translators at JAARS (Jungle Aviation and Relay Service), a missions organization that uses aircraft, boats, and off-road vehicles to deliver the Bible to people who are unreached. Cross Roads began their support of the Lanes when they were serving with JAARS.
