Sunday, February 5, 2017 became the first Sunday for Yohanes Dian Alpasa, who is running multiplication program of Stube-HEMAT Indonesia in Bengkulu area. Multiplication Program is a program to share knowledge conducted by alumni of Stube-HEMAT Yogyakarta in his/her place of origin. The person in charge is called ‘multiplicator’ with a mission corresponding with local context, to revive village youth group into a community forum that are productive, intelligent, and creative.
Like the introductory program to village youth, multiplication program is conducted by several stages. Start from the stage of preparation and introduction until the implementation process. The process will come to the broader stage which will be marked by community formation that able to "turn on" the atmosphere of active and harmonious village. The early stage that can be done are by actively attending meetings (within neighbour meeting), local church, and youth organization of area 7 in Desa Margasakti.
It is not a new community, but it will be new after leaving for many years to study in Yogyakarta, and it takes time to re-integrated because of age disparity among the members. A meeting with youth of GKSBS Kurotidur at the church hall, in Margasakti village was the first meeting held from 1 to 5pm.
At the end of the meeting most of the youth went home while rev. Cornelius Saito, the pastor and several people spent more time to talk with youth who were still stay there. From the discussion some information about the dynamics of the church in the district of Padang Jaya, struggle and hopes of the church and nearby residents were obtained. Thus, thediscussion gave clear reference to determine the direction of multiplication program. Keep on rolling and flowing! (YDA).
