The little boy in the middle sitting down is sponsored through Compassion and this is his family home.
Wherever we go, we have a crowd of curious onlookers, you don't see foreigners in Jakarta very often, especially in the slum areas. This is one such crowd.
The second project we visited is right next to a rubbish tip, where many of the children and their parents work, collecting anything that can be cleaned and sold for recycling. When we visited the tip, many of the children that were hanging around us came along, and they loved having their photo taken.
This is one of the Compassion mums who works at the rubbish tip.
Goat fight at the tip.
Another Compassion mum with her children. She is in the Child Survival Program with her baby girl, and another one of her sons is sponsored too.

Hi there...
Just wanna say... it was a very nice and interesting blog that you have here... I enjoyed reading your stories and looking at the amazing pictures that you've taken. It seems to me both of you had a wonderful adventure here in Indonesia. I'm actually Indonesian but I grew up in Perth, Australia. While I was browsing the net *browsing for canon service centre to be exact* has brought me here to your blog. I dunno why..*smile*. Again, super well done!
These kids ... their lives would've been heart-breaking to witness ... but there's so much hope & joy on their faces!!! Praises to Jesus!
Ben, you're a rockin' photographer! Sarah aka au-natural beautiful model! :D
Awesome work, Ben.
Your picture has been a blessing for the entire Compassion staff at our office in Bandung.
Send my regards to Sarah.
ouh...it's Tonny the guide. :)
