Catholic Religious Education lessons are also not included in the subjects that take part in the State Examination. This causes students to underestimate Catholic Religious Education lessons. In situations like that, teachers must be good at creating situations, creative and good at having methods so that PAK learning can be more interesting and arouse students' interest. Based on the researcher's experience of teaching at SMK N 1 Kelam Permai, many students obtained below average learning outcomes and students had little interest in the Catholic religious learning process.

To overcome the problems mentioned above, one of the alternatives proposed by researchers is learning using the Problem Based Learning model with the reward method, which aims to ensure that students' learning outcomes are good and they have a high interest in learning. The Redward method intended in this research is an educational tool for educational efforts to achieve satisfactory learning outcomes and change students' interest in learning for the better.

Increasing creative student learning outcomes in Catholic Religious Education by providing rewards for church material as God's people.3). Knowing students' reactions to the use of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) method by providing rewards to improve students' creative learning outcomes and interest in phase F of SMK N 1 Kelam Permai. In particular, in the material "The Church as God's people" it is hoped that students will be able to find themselves, recognize and accept themselves as members of God's people, and work together in efforts to develop themselves as members of the Church in accordance with God's plan.
