<![CDATA[The development of young Islamic boarding school students (santri) at the Kindergarten/TPA (Teaching and Religious Education) in Palae Village is an important strategy for strengthening religious values from an early age, integrated with the development of communication skills. This community service activity aims to: (1) improve understanding and skills in basic religious practices, including ablution, prayer, and memorization of short surahs; (2) develop public speaking skills as part of building students' self-confidence; and (3) shape adaptive and communicative religious character in social life. The implementation method uses a participatory approach through observation, program socialization, implementation of practice-based development, and evaluation through student performance assessments. The results of the activity show a significant increase in students' ability to carry out religious practices appropriately according to guidance and increased confidence in delivering religious material to a limited audience. The implications of this activity indicate that the integration of religious practice development and public speaking training is effective in strengthening the internalization of religious values while developing students' communication competencies from an early age.]]>
