Pato Banton
Minister Pato Banton aka “BrotherFriend” is a devoted Urantia Artisan and is also an internationally renowned Reggae Legend that has recorded and toured the world with Pater Gabriel, The English Beat, Stephen Marley, Steel Pulse, UB40 & STING! (to name just a few). Not only has Pato topped the reggae and commercial charts all over the world, he has also had 5 top 20 hits in the British Charts, with his biggest hit “Baby Come Back” (featuring Ali & Robin Campbel of UB40) staying at the No.1 position for 4 weeks in a row and selling over 30 million copies!   

Although his four-decade career has also earned him a Grammy Nomination and a place in the British Music Hall of Fame his journey has increasingly transcended the music business into arenas of youth outreach, teaching in schools, colleges & prisons, writing new curriculum for children with learning disabilities, Music Outreach Workshops around the world for “at risk” young people in disadvantaged communities and Global Spiritual Ministry. Pato also received the BBC Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his tireless community work and his successful efforts to help reduce gun crime in his hometown of Birmingham England. 

After finding The Urantia Book in 1987, Pato decided to devote his life to spreading Truth, Positivity and Love through his music. Eventually, Pato would become an Ordained Minister For Christ Michael so he could provide increasing levels of service to those who needed him. During this time Pato also received an Honorable Award from The Urantia Book Fellowship in the USA “For The Many Years Of Service To The Work Of The Urantia Book Revelation.”

In early 2018, Pato & his wife Antoinette Rootsdawtah (who is also a minister and world renowned reggae keyboard player) were both presented with the prestigious “Unity Earth ~ Keepers Of The Flame Award” by Ben Bowler and later that year they were both appointed as “Goodwill Ambassadors of the Golden Rule” by Ambassador Mussie of the United Nations & United Religions Initiative ~ Africa. In 2019 their Spiritual Family won the “URI Hermes Award” for creative collaboration and communications with other Cooperation Circles around the world and shortly thereafter they were both invited to become official members of the Evolutionary Leaders Circle, a dynamic and visionary project of the Source of Synergy Foundation. 

Most recently Pato was invited to the Los Angeles City Council Chambers and presented with the “Caribbean Cultural Heritage Award” in recognition of his ability to use music as a tool to engage diverse communities with a Message of Love! The State Of California Senate also awarded Pato with the “Las Rosas Honors” in recognition of his contribution to the arts and culture of the Caribbean and Central American Communities, jointly creating a richer and more diverse culture in the City of Los Angeles and the State of California. 

Now based in Southern California, Pato continues to record and tour the world extensively, conveying a positive, fun & spiritual message, while simultaneously serving as a Teacher, Counselor, Mentor & “Minister of the verb” to his Fans, Friends & Spiritual Family.”

WOW! What a beautiful surprise for Pato Banton, Antoinette Rootsdawtah & Jane Tipton King when they crossed the border of Rwanda to visit the Grace Villa Orphanage in Kabale, Uganda.

The "Spirit of Ubuntu" documentary will highlight amazing leaders from 12 different countries across the African continent, who espouse the values of compassion, humanity, caring and sharing, ethics, dignity and loving service within their respective communities. 

Even though this video was mostly filmed on Pato's iPhone, it definitely captures this beautiful moment in the remote hills of Kabale, Uganda and shows us that the Spirit of Ubuntu is alive and well in Mama Africa! 

Ubuntu!

Antoinette Rootsdawtah writes on Facebook: Did you know that Pato released Baby Come Back with Ali Campbell of UB40 in 1994, sold 30 million copies worldwide and was #1 on the UK charts for 4 weeks straight and Ali Campbell and Pato have only performed the song once together! Well it’s about to go down tonight at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. Ali and Astro was gracious enough to spend the day with us going to soundcheck, drinking the good champs (Vueve) and them just reminiscing together the good old days of Brummie, UK! Oh Cherry oh baby this is gonna be good! All thanks to Zach Hodgins and his wife Brittany who traveled all the way from Florida and suggested Pato link up with Ali on this amazing show with UB40, Iration, Fortunate Youth, Toots and the Maytels and more great bands!!!! Live stream available!

What was intended to be a simple "selfie" on my iPhone, ended being an awesome short discussion about the various religious groups and spiritual individuals invited to participate in U Day 2018 Ethiopia by Ben Bowler of UnityEarth, World Weavers, Monk for a Month and 1God.com. I also asked everyone to "define their belief" and the responses were fun and revealing! It's always an amazing experience to meet new people who are Passionate about God and the future of Humanity. "There is a New Day Dawning and I can hear the Angels calling." Enjoy! :-) Created and Edited in Lalibela, Ethiopia by Pato Banton www.patobanton.com www.facebook.com/patobanton www.facebook.com/ministerpatobanton www.facebook.com/patobantonandthenowgeneration www.reverbnation.com/patobantonandthenowgeneration http://www.youtube.com/officialpatoba...

Antoinette Rootsdawtah provides a beautiful video presentation of her trip to Accra, Ghana with Pato Banton. This was a mission to host a spiritual gathering, spread the good news, demonstrate the importance to COEXIST between people of different religious faiths, and introduce the African community to the teachings of the Urantia Book.

After an exciting Spiritual Mission & Musical Tour of Japan, Taiwan and South Korea, Pato & Antoinette share some of the highlights of this beautiful experience. 

Future "Missions" are planned across the USA, England, Ethiopia, Ghana & Brazil. Stay tuned!!!
