THE STORY:

|
Baja Bob, as we call him, started his mission to serve the poor and reach the lost 20 years ago, leading teams into Mexico to build houses, schools, churches and orphanages.
Bob Sanders, the founder of Baja Christian Ministries, has now built thousands of homes, established pastors, built churches and led many into a relationship with our Creator, Jesus Christ.

Not only is the project about building houses, it’s about building new communities with strong leaders to take care of the ongoing needs of families and their children in the future.
The Rock, led by Anthony Walton, is a contemporary church based in Wellington, New Zealand. Anthony is the connection that has helped to take these achievements to a new level. Joining forces with Baja Bob, Anthony Walton began bringing his teams from halfway around the globe to fund and build houses.
Because of Anthony’s long-term friendship with Newsboys, he introduced Baja Bob to Peter Furler, which resulted in Newsboys building a house.
The day before their annual four day motocross trip across the Baja deserts and mountains, they built a home for a solo mother with five kids, whose husband was in prison for murdering their friends.
Newsboys then introduced TeenMania into the mix and helped initiate the recent Baja 1000, where over one thousand youth, contractors and leaders built 26 homes in a week.
Now Global Tribe, led by Anthony Walton, supported by Newsboys, in partnership with Baja Bob, has initiated plans to build a new Mexican village every year, complete with churches, schools and orphanages where needed.
