Each Saturday and Sunday through November 22, 2026, the Special Witnesses of Jesus Christ y Tú le importas videos are featured every half hour from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the Visitors’ Center 500-seat auditorium. They are available weekdays on a large-screen monitor near the exhibit room.
Marvel at the beauty and vastness of the observable universe while enjoying reverent music. Find solace in the inspirational messages from apostles of the Lord that provide insight and hope regarding the purpose of our creation.
Tú le importas is a 10-minute presentation featuring stunning 3D renderings, professional musical performances, and excerpts from remarks by Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Acting President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The video is narrated by bruce lindsay, an Emmy Award-winning former news anchor for KSL TV in Salt Lake City.
In his remarks, Elder Uchtdorf focuses on our personal divine worth and how we can actively build a lasting, personal relationship with God through spiritual seeking. He uses the vastness of astronomy as a powerful metaphor, contrasting our apparent smallness in the universe with God’s vast and deeply personal love for each of us and our capacity to receive spiritual revelation.
Enjoy the powerful testimony of Elder Neal A. Maxwell, who served as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints until his passing in 2004. In this 2000 Special Witnesses of Christ film produced by the Church, Elder Maxwell speaks of Jesus Christ as the Lord of the Universe and reflects on His promised return in supreme cosmic glory. He contrasts that future glory with the humility of Christ’s birth and bears testimony that the grand Creator of the universe is also deeply and personally mindful of every individual.
New to the Worlds Without Number: God’s Infinite Creation exhibit are four super-sized, high-resolution images — AG Carinae, Cosmic Reef, Westerlund 2 (all from the Hubble Space Telescope), and NPP Blue Marble (from NASA’s Suomi NPP weather and climate observation satellite.)
Enjoy the magnificence of being up close to these and other detailed cosmic prints that vary in size between THREE and SEVEN feet in height and width!
If you are making a return trip to the Temple Visitors’ Center, or coming for the first time, enjoy the reverence and awe of this popular and inspiring exhibit testifying of Jesus Christ as Lord of the Universe and creator of all things at the direction of Heavenly Father.
Additionally, we are excited to announce that distinguished fine art photographer Eva Koleva Timothy is collaborating with the Visitors’ Center to add several of her photo paintings relating to Jesus Christ and the heavenly majesty of His creations.
Eva is an award-winning fine art photographer and Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain. Her work has been exhibited and collected internationally, including by the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, Oxford University, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
