RUMBAY, Christar A. et al. Embracing mapalus traditional management values for Christian religious education. Herv. teol. stud. [online]. 2022, vol.78, n.1, pp.1-8. ISSN 2072-8050.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/hts.v78i1.7986.

The relationship between religion and education in the Minahasa community still receives inadequate attention. One part of local wisdom that has experienced degradation of its noble values over the years is the mapalus culture. Therefore, it is imperative to construct and manage Christian religious education (CRE) in Minahasa because of its ability to properly accommodate religious values and issues or local culture. This study tries to determine the right management values in mapalus culture that can contribute to CRE development in Minahasa. Data were descriptively collected from articles, books and interview information from community leaders. The result showed that solidarity and discipline management are elements of mapalus that have the potential to be synergised with CRE management. CONTRIBUTION: The main contribution of this research is to offer mapalus values to the CRE management development. This finding could be a formula for other contexts and future agenda that could bring together education, religion and culture.
