Just like our global shark population is expanding, so is Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium.
Dr. Michael P. Crosby, Mote’s President and CEO will reflect on the importance of the sea as he shares Mote’s mission, its ground breaking research, ocean conservation, education and plans for its exciting future with Oceans for All!
You’ll get a virtual tour of Mote SEA where you’ll be transported virtually behind the scenes for a tour of the new Science Education Aquarium viewing incredible displays of marine life, interactive technology and windows into Mote’s amazing science.
Then you’ll take a journey around the globe and hear from Dr. Demian Chapman, Director of the Sharks and Rays Conservation Program at Mote and leader of the international Global FinPrint Project. Dr. Chapman will share the latest on Mote’s expanding shark research and conservation programs.
Eighth-Day Discipleship: A New Vision for Faith, Work & Economics
Richard H. Bliese in his book, and in this class, “draws on the historic architecture of eight-sided churches to call attention to an important but often overlooked emphasis on the eighth day of creation. Early Christians were focused on God’s new creation that began in Christ’s resurrection on Sunday, the first day of the week. But these Christians understood resurrection as the continuation of God’s creative and redemptive activity. So the first day of the week became the eighth day of creation, and therefore the day of resurrection work and time to join with Christ in transforming the world. Christian disciples do this work by living out their baptismal vocations, especially in their daily work and through their ethical economic choices.”
