Abstract

Inculturation is an effort to make church rituals understandable and attractive to local cultures. The church strives to incorporate a community’s values and culture to enrich the faith of the people, and its taste for worship. An example is the Fohorem church’s allowing traditional Hamulak music for the ritual of taking holy water. The purpose of this article is to describe how traditional hamulak music is used in the Fohorem church and how the Fohoren church simultaneously conforms to the Catholic Church’s liturgical music guidelines. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The data collection technique is an online field interview. The results showed that Hamulak music in the church is a sign of the Church’s openness to local values and culture, especially local musical art. The ritual and local traditions support each other and strengthen the faith and cultural taste of the Fohorem people. The singing of traditional hamulak music in the church helps the people in prayer and is inseparable from the guidelines for inculturating liturgical music.
