56th Citizenship Education (Training-of-Trainers)<\/strong><\/h5>\nRantepao (South Sulawesi), 24-27 March 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Christians should become responsible citizens. That is, they should share the responsibility of anything that happens in their country. It is a logical consequence of the status of Christians as citizens of the Kingdom of God and of Indonesia.<\/p>\n
To arrive at the practical realization of the Christian’s responsibility as a citizen, Christians need to be educated to know, to want , and to be able. How could they know if not taught? How could they want to if not motivated and directed? And, how could they have the ability if they don\u2019t try simple but concrete action steps?<\/p>\n

Motivated by the desire to help church congregations to know, to want, and to be able to participate as citizens responsibly, the Leimena Institute, in partnership with the Toraja Church Synod, held the Training-of-Trainers (TOT) for the Citizenship Education on March 24-27, 2014. The program which took place at the Toraja Church\u2019s \u201cTangmentoe\u201d Study and Training Center in Rantepao, North Toraja, was opened by Toraja Church Synod\u2019s Vice Chair Rev. Daniel Rori. The training was attended by 42 pastor from churches Toraja, Luwu, Batam, Bekasi, Jakarta, Surabaya, and other cities and provinces.<\/p>\n
In the training, participants not only learned the Citizenship Education modules, such as Politics and Christianity, Your Voice is Precious, Constitutional Amendment Impact on Citizens\u2019 Role, but they also practiced teaching the modules to the students at the Christian Religion State College in Toraja.<\/p>\n
The participants acknowledged that they were very happy and satisfied to be able to share with the students. This is beyond their own expectation, that they were able to teach the Citizenship Education modules successfully. This is a good first step for the participants to become future facilitators for the Citizenship Education program in their own churches or even in other places.<\/p>\n
