Support our ministry

Financial Support

If God is leading you to join us in our ministry, the best way to do so is through our support organization—the Central Missionary Clearinghouse (CMC). One-time or recurring donations can be set up online at cmcmissions.org/donate.

Donate Through CMC

Giving by Mail Through CMC

Make checks payable to Central Missionary Clearinghouse and mail them to:

Include a separate note indicating that your gift is for Lance and Ruth Baker. CMC asks that you do not write the missionary’s name on the check. For current giving information, please visit CMC’s donation page.

Prayer Support

Our first need is for people who are committed to joining us in ministry through prayer. If God has put this on your heart, please email us and let us know if you will support us through prayer. We will add you to our updates list and email you when we add a new blog post. Thank you!

Prayer Requests

  • Ruth still struggles with post-concussion syndrome due to the head injury a couple of years ago.
  • That God would direct our steps as we prayerfully phase into a greater role with the Asia Gateway Initiative, while supporting missionaries in multiple other capacities, and serving at our international church.
  • That God would bring us new Inspire homeschool helpers if that is His will.
  • That we would continue to develop a good community in Thailand for us and our boys.
  • That our monthly support will maintain its current level so we can focus on other things.
  • In all our requests, we pray for what would glorify God the most.
