Abstract: Based on data from WHO, cervical cancer is ranked second among all types of cancer that occur among Indonesian women. Lack of knowledge and the right attitude in dealing with this matter is the basis for an increase in cases of cervical cancer. This study aimed to obtain an overview of the knowledge and attitude of women from the GMIM Sion Tumaluntung Congregation regarding cervical cancer. This was a quantitative and descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. Sample were obtained by using a random sampling technique of 100 samples who met the criteria. The results showed that 91 respondents (91%) had good level of knowledge about cervical cancer, and nine respondents (9%) had poor level of knowledge. Meanwhile, related to attitudes in this study, 86 respondents (86%) had positive attitude towards preventing cervical cancer, and 14 people (14%) had less positive attitude. In conclusion, the majority of women in the GMIM Sion Tumaluntung Congregation have good knowledge and attitude about cervical cancer. This level of knowledge and good attitude cannot be separated from the influence of several factors such as age, experience, education, work, and sources of information.
