with whom he performed for 16 years. James message was powerful –“The God of the Second Chance,” and following the
invitation, James joined the prayer team to pray and speak with those who responded.

collective impact reflects the heart of the ministry:

650 volunteers from 150 churches
1180 responded to the Gospel
17 tons of food was collected for the poor

The core mission of GlobalTribe is to wage war on poverty – physical and spiritual. It began in 1992 when founder Anthony Walton led a team of 30 to Romania to provide aid for the children victimized by the cruel dictator Nicolae Ceausescu. Through the years, GlobalTribe has partnered with ministries with orphanages in 5 countries, missions in the Amazon and Zambia, evangelism and homes for the poor in Baja, launched youth centers in New Zealand, and conducted the 5 Reach events. For 2010, GlobalTribe’s focus is launching a village of 350 homes in Baja, partnered with Teen Mania and Baja Christian Ministries.
