Abstract

Hauteas are branching wooden sticks that are considered sacred by the indigenous people of Timor. This tradition is still carried out by the Nopala tribe as part of traditional rituals that reflect happiness, enthusiasm and unity as brothers. This research was conducted to preserve cultural beliefs, deepen the Catholic faith, and strengthen feelings of brotherhood within the tribe, which has an impact on cultural respect between tribes. The method used is qualitative with a naturalistic descriptive approach. Data was collected through observation and in-depth interviews. The research results show that Hauteas functions as a symbolic language for the Nopala Tribe to express their faith in Allah (Uis Neno). Hauteas symbolizes holiness, divinity, and the existence of the Triune God. The process of planting Hauteas and the rituals surrounding it convey deep religious and social significance, strengthening the spiritual connection of the people with God and their ancestors. Hauteas' presence is also relevant to the development of the Catholic faith, because it is a bridge of understanding between ancestral traditions and Catholic teachings. This research concludes that Hauteas is a heritage of faith that is not only a religious symbol but also a means of deepening relationships between tribal members and increasing cross-cultural respect. Preserving these traditions is important to ensure that the spiritual and cultural meaning of Hauteas remains alive amidst changing times.

Abstract

Crimes committed by certain individuals, such as human trafficking, are a serious problem that needs to be addressed and continuously voiced and solutions sought, because these acts are sins that injure the human person himself and are also sins in front of them. human trafficking reduces the value and dignity of humans who are the face and likeness of God into goods that can be bought and sold. This action directly goes against God, who essentially loves humans and created humans equal to His own face and likeness. The aim of the research is for people to understand that this act of human trafficking already has the spirit of the Old and New Testaments. By understanding that humans are the image of God himself, solutions should be found to overcome the crime of human trafficking. This research uses a qualitative method by means of library research, namely investigating Bible stories, documents, theological books, articles, news related to the problem. The results of this research show that it is necessary to understand humans theologically in order to prevent and overcome cases of human trafficking in several ways, namely: humans as the image and likeness of God, humans were created as social creatures, humans were created not as goods but as individuals. As a follow-up, this research recommends that the government, church and society can make efforts to stop the practice of human trafficking which continues to grow.

Because it is called for a Catholic teacher who has competence in teaching. The results of the study showed that based on descriptive statistical analysis the achievement of Catholic teacher teacher competency indicators on student achievement in Kupang 2 Public Middle School was 33.10% or in the poor category, while the achievement of student learning achievement indicators was 33.8% at categorically not good means that Catholic teachers do not show the ability in teaching and learning activities.

Abstract

This research was conducted to find out how deep the faith of the faithful in the Basic Ecclesial Community (BEC) or in Indonesia is called Komunitas Basis Gereani (KBG). This research is a form of concern for the lives of the faithful in the church base community. The Ecclesial Base Community is one of the communities that became a model community that can be a light to illuminate the situation of Indonesian society after the 1998 Reformation. This idea was born from the agreement of the General Assembly of the Indonesian Catholic Church (SAGKI) in 2000. According to the leaders of the Indonesian Catholic Church (Bishops) and representatives of the people present, it was found that the decline in the life of the nation and state that occurred in Indonesia after the Reformation was caused by the decline in the appreciation of faith. Therefore, SAGKI recommended the BEC as a “way” to build a common spirit in advancing the nation. This research is made with a qualitative model. Relevant theories to be used as a framework for thinking and asking questions are also presented in this research. The report on the results of this research is made descriptively, by dividing it into sub-themes according to the classification of questions that have been made.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the teaching strategies implemented by Catholic Religious Education (CRE) teachers in developing 21st-century skills, namely Critical Thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, and Communication (4Cs), at SMAS Katolik Tri Sakti Medan. Using a qualitative approach and descriptive method, this research analyzes how teachers apply teaching methods that encourage active student participation through group discussions, case study-based projects, and the use of visual media. The findings show that the application of teaching strategies based on Piaget’s constructivist theory and Mayer’s multimodal theory successfully creates a dynamic and interactive learning environment. Teachers provide space for students to ask questions, engage in discussions, and critically analyze the material, which supports the development of 4Cs skills. Students’ critical thinking, communication, creativity, and collaboration skills significantly improved through project-based and collaborative learning. Overall, these findings emphasize the importance of innovative and varied teaching approaches in preparing students for the challenges of the 21st century, while maintaining the moral and spiritual values in religious education.

Abstract

This study explores the role of women in the Catholic Church based on the apostolic letter Mulieris Dignitatem by Pope John Paul II. The research is rooted in the historical and social developments that have shaped women's position within the Church. Its objective is to identify and understand the Church’s theological perspective on women’s dignity, vocation, and contribution within family, society, and the Body of Christ. The method employed is a literature review, analyzing Church documents, theological literature, and relevant academic articles. The findings reveal that women possess equal dignity to men and have an irreplaceable role, particularly through their maternal qualities, sensitivity, and active participation in Church life. Nevertheless, structural limitations still hinder women from holding ecclesiastical leadership roles. The study concludes by emphasizing the need for further reflection and more inclusive implementation of Mulieris Dignitatem to strengthen the role of women in the modern Catholic Church.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of Catholic Religious Education (CRE) teachers in diaconal engagement at St. Joseph Parish, Delitua. A mixed-method approach was used, combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews with CRE teachers, priests, and pastoral leaders, as well as participatory observation during liturgical and social activities. Quantitative data were collected through questionnaires evaluating the frequency and types of CRE teachers’ involvement in church ministry. The results of the study indicate that time constraints, motivation, and lack of community support are the main barriers to implementing diaconal values by teachers. Nevertheless, involvement in diakonia has a positive impact on their teaching quality and spiritual experience. This research provides recommendations to strengthen support and training in order to enhance CRE teachers’ participation in church ministry and the development of diaconal spirituality.
