This study examines “The Values of the Poen Ana Tradition as a Cultural Initiation of the Tefa Ethnic Community in Noepesu Village.” The Poen Ana tradition is a customary practice of the Tefa ethnic community that has been passed down from generation to generation and continues to be preserved today. The study aims to identify the values embedded in the Poen Ana tradition, the supporting and inhibiting factors affecting its implementation, and the efforts undertaken by the community to understand and preserve these traditional values. This research employed a qualitative descriptive method. The study was conducted in Noepesu Village, West Miomaffo District, North Central Timor Regency, Indonesia. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings reveal that the Poen Ana tradition consists of several stages: a preparation stage, a three-day implementation stage, and a closing stage marked by a thanksgiving prayer service and a communal meal. The tradition embodies several important values, including the value of protection and well-being, reflected in prayers for the safety of the child and family; spiritual values, emphasizing the relationship between humans, God, and their ancestors; social values, which strengthen kinship ties and mutual cooperation; and theological values, expressed through gratitude to God and petitions for His protection. Supporting factors for the implementation of this tradition include family support, a strong sense of community solidarity, and a shared commitment to preserving cultural heritage. Meanwhile, the main obstacles are economic limitations and the declining public understanding of the tradition's meaning. Therefore, preserving the Poen Ana tradition requires cultural education, active involvement of traditional leaders, and increased awareness among the younger generation so that this cultural heritage can continue to be maintained and passed on within the Tefa community.
