Abstract :
Peran guru sekolah minggu sangat penting dalam membina dan mengembangkan iman umat Kristiani, khususnya anak-anak. Gereja Toraja Jemaat Yudea Dole' telah menjalankan program sekolah minggu setiap hari minggu sebagai salah satu upaya untuk mencapai misi gereja. Namun, berdasarkan pengamatan awal, ditemukan beberapa permasalahan yang memerlukan perhatian serius, yaitu rendahnya partisipasi anak dalam mengikuti ibadah, minimnya pengetahuan isi Alkitab, dan keterbatasan kemampuan berdoa secara pribadi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran guru sekolah minggu dalam meningkatkan keaktifan anak-anak mengikuti ibadah di Gereja Toraja Jemaat Yudea Dole'. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif, penelitian menggali lebih dalam kontribusi guru sekolah minggu dalam membina spiritual anak-anak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat beberapa tantangan signifikan dalam proses pembinaan iman anak, meliputi rendahnya motivasi mengikuti ibadah, keterbatasan pemahaman Alkitab, dan minimnya kemampuan berdoa. Penelitian mengungkapkan perlunya pengembangan metode pengajaran yang lebih inovatif, pendekatan personal, dan strategi pembinaan yang komprehensif. Kesimpulan penelitian menekankan bahwa peran guru sekolah minggu tidak sekadar mengajar, melainkan membentuk fondasi spiritual anak-anak secara holistik. Diperlukan pendekatan yang mampu menginspirasi, memotivasi, dan membimbing anak-anak dalam mengenal dan mengalami kasih Allah. Kata Kunci: Guru Sekolah Minggu, Pembinaan Iman, Keaktifan Ibadah ABSTRACT The role of Sunday school teachers is very important in fostering and developing the faith of Christians, especially children. The Toraja Church of the Judea Dole' Congregation has run a Sunday school program every Sunday as an effort to achieve the church's mission. However, based on initial observations, several problems were found that require serious attention, namely the low participation of children in attending worship, minimal knowledge of the contents of the Bible, and limited ability to pray personally. This study aims to analyze the role of Sunday school teachers in increasing the activeness of children in attending worship at the Toraja Church of the Judea Dole' Congregation. Through a descriptive qualitative approach, the study explores more deeply the contribution of Sunday school teachers in fostering children's spirituality. The results of the study indicate that there are several significant challenges in the process of fostering children's faith, including low motivation to attend worship, limited understanding of the Bible, and minimal ability to pray. The study reveals the need to develop more innovative teaching methods, personal approaches, and comprehensive coaching strategies. The conclusion of the study emphasizes that the role of Sunday school teachers is not just teaching, but also forming the spiritual foundation of children holistically. An approach is needed that is able to inspire, motivate, and guide children in knowing and experiencing God's love. Keywords: Sunday School Teachers, Faith Formation, Worship Activity.
