The Sara Douda culture which is an oral tradition and a local heritage, has Christian religious education values in it and also has the potential to enrich religious experiences in Christian religious education. Christian Religious Education has a strategic role in shaping the character and spirituality of students. In the context of the Loli community, the Sara Douda culture has local wisdom values that can be integrated into Christian religious education. This study aims to analyse how the values in the Sara Douda culture can be contextualized with Christian teachings, thus creating education that is relevant to the local culture. The research method used is qualitative-descriptive, with participatory observation, interviews, and text analysis, namely using literature related to the meaning and experience of the Loli community in the Sara Douda rite. This research reveals that values such as faith, respect and obedience, holiness and sacredness, togetherness and brotherhood, discipline and perseverance, honesty, social responsibility, peace, and simplicity and humility contained in the Sara Douda culture are in harmony with Christian teachings. Sara Douda culture is not only a spiritual entertainment, but also a medium for teaching religious values that are passed down from generation to generation. In this context, the Sara Douda dance is identified as a means to strengthen the social and spiritual ties of the Loli Community, while transmitting religious messages that are relevant to the local context. This cultural contextualization not only enriches theological understanding, but also strengthens the cultural identity of the Loli community in their Christian faith and contributes to the development of more inclusive Christian religious education, respecting local heritage and strengthening the faith of students.
