A Infinita Criação de Deus

The Worlds With Number: God’s Infinite Creation exhibit is for people of all faiths, beliefs and backgrounds.

It invites both religious and scientific discovery and, through music and the spoken word, inspires the spiritual learning that gives our secular learning purpose.

Most importantly, it seeks to bring hope in a loving God through remarkable images of the heavens and an opportunity to experience reverential respect and awe regarding the Creation and purpose of life.

Apostolic Messages

Each Saturday and Sunday through November 22, 2026, the Special Witnesses of Jesus Christ Você é importante para ele 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. 

“You Matter to Him”

Find solace in the inspirational message Você é importante para ele by Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Acting President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. His message focuses on our personal divine worth and how we can actively build a lasting, personal relationship with God through spiritual seeking. Elder Uchtdorf 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.

At the Visitors’ Center an accompanying 10-minute video features Elder Uchtdorf’s message, stunning 3D astronomical renderings, and professional musical performances by artists Jenny Oaks Baker Kurt Bestor. The video is narrated by Bruce Lindsay, Emmy Award-winning former news anchor for KSL TV in Salt Lake City.

“Special Witnesses of Jesus Christ”

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. As part of a film produced by the Church, Special Witnesses of Christ, 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 Creator of the universe is also deeply and personally mindful of every individual.

New Space Images

New to the Worlds Without Number: God’s Infinite Creation exhibit are four very large, 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 being up close to these and other detailed cosmic prints that vary in size from three to seven feet.

Come to the DC Temple Visitors’ Center and enjoy this popular and inspiring exhibit that testifies of Jesus Christ as Lord of the Universe and Creator of all things.

Art by Eva Koleva Timothy

We are pleased to collaborate with distinguished fine art photographer Eva Koleva Timothy. Several of her photo paintings relating to Jesus Christ and the heavens are included in the exhibit.

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. 

Eva’s debut monograph, Lost in Learning: The Art of Discovery, received the PX3 People’s Choice Award in Paris and blends perfectly with the Mundos sem número exhibit emphasis on discovery.
