Saturday we took our students on a field trip to Sentul City to visit a drug rehab center called Yayasan Breakthrough Missions Indonesia or YBMI. I think it was a great exposure for our students to hear from patients that have been helped by YBMI; and to see the effects of drug addiction.

This facility takes no funds from the government; it is sponsored totally by Christians. It was started by a Yayasan group; the same one that started UPH University. The Yayasan is a group of wealthy Christian business men that do special projects to start schools, universities, hospitals and missions. Once the mission was started, the continuing work is sponsored by local churches. Every patient that leaves the mission is a miracle of God.

Urbex trip.
