Why Becoming Whole?
The power of the Becoming Whole exhibition
is its ability to inspire awe and wonder.
Astronauts describe a mix of awe and a deep sense that all life is connected when they see Earth from space. In an Easter message from Artemis II pilot Victor Glover summed it up like this:
"This is an opportunity for us to remember where we are, who we are, and that we are the same thing and that we got to get through this together."
Our hope is that Becoming Whole will offer us a similar perspective. One that will inspire us, connect us, and embolden us toward better stewardship of creation.
Whole Faith. Whole Community. Whole Creation.
