title Family Faith Education for the next generation in the untact era : A Case Study of Hansomang Church, Paju, Korea
abstract Home is the first place everyone hugs in their lives. All humans are born and raised in families, and when they become adults, they create another new family and continue history. The family is the first place of education where human formation takes place, and the family is also the place of faith formation. The family is the smallest religious community built by God and is a small church.

Christian families are obligated to educate their faith and love for God. However, due to industrialization, it was entrusted to the church along with various functions of the family. Recently, due to COVID-19, the period of untact has arrived, and many functions have been demanded by families again. It is time for churches and families to work together to lay the foundation for family faith education.

To this end, first, in the Old Testament, New Drug, and Reformation Era, family faith education was examined. It also looked at changes in the family during the untact period and studied pastoral methodologies on "how to share faith in the family?" and "what changes should be made in front of God," which are values and goals that should not be missed.

In this study, the case of the next generation department (childhood department, child department) of Hansomang Church was selected as a pastoral methodology for family belief education. The focus was on what programs each department has to educate parents and help educate family beliefs.

A survey was conducted on parents with children in the next generation, and families' environment, awareness of worship, and worship were able to be examined.

I hope that this paper will contribute as one of the ways to help churches and pastors preparing for faith education in each family of the church.
