Religious harmony in a pluralistic society is a considerable challenge, especially in Indonesia, a country of great diversity. The villages of Jrahi and Giling, which have diverse religious and cultural backgrounds, are important examples of how religious harmony can be achieved amid potential conflicts of difference. This research aims to explore the dynamics of religious harmony in Kampung Jrahi and Giling and identify the main factors that support creating a harmonious and secure life in diversity. The methodology of the study is qualitative which focuses on field studies. The study location is in Jrahi and Giling Villages. The method of data collection is divided into two, namely; primary data through meetings with community leaders, religious leaders, and villagers, and secondary data through documentation materials and government administration. Collection techniques were obtained through interview methods, observation, and documentation. Data validity was through triangulation of sources, techniques, and time. Data analysis was done descriptively. The results of the study show that 1) the culture of peace that prevails in the lives of the Jrahi and Giling communities is a pattern of life and social interaction that is shown by a state of security, calm, mutual respect and respect between community members, despite living in the form of differences in religion, beliefs and beliefs adopted; 2) Excessive socio-political or economic changes in Jrahi and Giling Villages have the potential to weaken the culture of security by disrupting individual interaction patterns and eroding the pure values that have been embedded. 3) Preserving the culture of peace is the identity of Jrahi and Giling Villages, Gunungwungkal Sub-district, Pati Regency. The community carries out movements that are considered very positive in supporting the attitude of tolerance inherited from generation to generation, such as inviting to live in harmony and giving charity.
