Devotional – Worlds Without Number: God's Infinite Creation

In addition to bearing personal testimony of their belief in Jesus Christ as Creator and Lord of the Universe, our devotional speakers will address the exhibit’s image selection, education that’s not just for mortal life but eternal life, and what’s on the horizon with space technology and research — including the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope and Vera Rubin Observatory.
