Abstract

Urban communities living in the Mendawai Social Complex, Palangka Raya City are facing various economic challenges, especially income instability due to odd jobs such as construction workers and traditional miners. Community Service (PKM) activities use the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method. Considering the large area of the PKM location, researchers invite active participation from the GKE Panenga Congregation, which also experiences the same economic problems, to find solutions to these problems. The purpose of this PKM activity is to improve community welfare through three main aspects, namely independence, social capital, and life skills. The results of this PKM activity show that participants can find references for independent businesses that have the potential to increase income through life skills training in the culinary field. Participants also obtain solutions in managing business groups so that they can be sustainable through business coordination training provided by practitioners. Then, there is a re-strengthening of the social capital of the participants through solutions to social problems provided during the PKM activity. In addition, another quite prominent result of this PKM activity is that it not only has a positive impact on the participants but also on the Mendawai Social Complex community, namely the existence of a reference for a business model that can be developed independently. At the end of this PKM activity which uses the Community Based Development (CBD) approach and produces effective community empowerment activities, the researcher suggests that both the government and other private parties also use the same approach to the Mendawai Social Complex community, or other urban communities who are trapped in poverty.

During 2022, there have been six cases of depression which caused all the victims to hang themselves and occurred at close intervals, so the district government requires religious figures to provide spiritual guidance to the community to reduce cases of depression in the area. And one of the churches that has implemented guidance is GKE Hosana Buntut Bali, Katingan Regency. This study aims to describe the condition of people with depression and the implementation of pastoral communication in reducing depression rates, especially in GKE Buntut Bali, Katingan Regency. This research used descriptive qualitative method. Data collection techniques used, namely observation, interviews, documentation studies and triangulation techniques. The results of this research found that depression is caused by family problems, economic problems, and even health problems. Furthermore, in implementing Pastoral Communication, the Pastor knows the communicant, maintains openness, uses language that is easy to understand, uses analogies or relevant examples, and maintains solemnity and attention. Thus, the pastoral care carried out produces a healing function, a supporting function, and a complete function that is oriented towards the physical, mental, social and spiritual aspects of the sufferer.
