STRATEGI GURU SEKOLAH MINGGU DALAM MENGATASI KECANDUAN GADGET PADA ANAK SEKOLAH MINGGU DI GEREJA KRISTEN SETIA INDONESIA (GKSI) ELSHADDAY BOJO

Abstract

Gereja Kristen Setia Indonesia (GKSI) Ellshadai Bojo is located in West Sulawesi, Mateng Regency, Budong-Budong District, specifically in Bojo Village. This is where the Community Service activities were conducted. Based on observations and surveys conducted, spiritual activities, especially for Sunday school children at GKSI Ellshadai Bojo, have not yet been implemented because the children tend to play games and there is a lack of parental or teacher involvement in the children's spiritual life for monitoring gadget addiction. As a form of greater spiritual responsibility and care, understanding the truth of God's Word through application via media, and ensuring children become a generation that fears God and has noble character. The implementation of this Community Service uses methods of observation, survey, discussion, and is supported by existing journals. The results obtained from these efforts are that Sunday school children at GKSI Ellshadai Bojo have begun to control or parents can regulate the children's time in using gadgets, thus refocusing on participating in Sunday school worship, especially in listening to God's Word stories directly from teachers or through media (laptops), and their attention has returned.
