Pancasila education in elementary schools plays a crucial role in shaping students' character based on national and religious values. However, the conceptual delivery of Pancasila values often fails to encourage internalization of these values in students' daily lives. Therefore, this community service activity aims to educate elementary school students about Pancasila values, grounded in religious teachings, through storytelling. The activity was conducted at the MI Ittihadiyah Foundation using an educational-participatory method, encompassing preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The material was presented through stories on the themes of honesty, mutual assistance, and respect for differences, integrating Pancasila values with religious teachings. Evaluation was conducted through observation, question-and-answer sessions, and reflection to determine students' level of understanding and engagement during the activity. The results showed that the storytelling method increased students' active participation, facilitated their understanding of the meaning of Pancasila values, and encouraged them to relate moral messages to their daily behavior. The integration of religious values into stories also helps students understand the relationship between religious teachings and the implementation of Pancasila values, particularly regarding the aspects of divinity, humanity, unity, and social concern. Therefore, the religious teaching-based storytelling method is an effective and contextual approach to instilling Pancasila values in elementary school students and supporting the strengthening of character education from an early age.
