Bukit Doa, the Hill of Prayer

Newt has mentioned that BDIC, the church he is leading, is located in an area that the government allowed for churches of five faiths to build worship facilities. There is a mosque, a Catholic church,  a Buddhist temple,  the Protestant church shared by the Indonesian church and the English-speaking congregation, and the Hindu temple. The 4th pic is a view of all of them, and the last pic is the Hindus. We all share a parking lot, which can get pretty crazy. Good Friday was also a big Muslim holiday, and many busloads of Muslim worshippers we dropped off, causing a major traffic jam as we were coming to Good Friday worship. The Catholics  have services all morning long, the Hindus at 1200 on Sunday, and multiple times daily, throughout the week, the Muslims worship on Fridays. The Buddhists worship on Wednesdays and Sundays.
