<![CDATA[The orphanage supervisor plays an important role in instilling religious values in the orphanage children, especially in building the religious foundation for those from low-income backgrounds who lack parents to guide them directly. This study aims to determine and explain the role of the supervisor in instilling religious values in children at the Guyub Rukun Orphanage. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, specifically a case study type, utilizing a purposive sampling technique to cover 4 informants: 2 orphanage supervisors who serve as the head of the orphanage, and 2 orphanage children. This study uses Talcott Parsons Structural Functionalism theory to collect data using non-participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data analysis refers to the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, which consists of three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions and verification. The results of this study show that instilling religious values is achieved by building habits of religious practice, such as congregational prayer and religious studies, and by fostering an attitude of mutual respect and discipline. Instilling religious values emphasizes the importance of mentors as role models for orphanage children facing difficult economic conditions and lacking religious guidance from their families. This shows that mentors have a role as educators, spiritual guides, moral role models, and substitute parents in shaping the religious values of orphanage children. There are challenges caused by foster children not living permanently in the orphanage.]]>
