Abstract

Environmental problems in rural areas are often related to low public awareness of the importance of environmental conservation. A similar situation is found in Horisan Ranggitgit Village, where less sustainable environmental management practices persist. This Community Service activity aims to increase community ecotheological awareness through faith education programs and environmental awareness programs. The method used is a participatory approach with an educational approach, including ecotheological outreach, group discussions, and joint environmental actions with the community. The results of the activity indicate an increase in community understanding of the relationship between Christian faith and ecological responsibility, as well as the emergence of attitudes and commitment to protecting the surrounding environment. This activity demonstrates that an ecotheological approach can be an effective strategy in building environmental awareness and behavior in rural communities
