The world is in our hands


This small sculpture is located in the gardens of the Arizona Center. It’s titled “In our Hands” and it is dedicated to the Sisters of Mercy who started the first hospital in the Arizona Territory before we became a state. It made me think that the world is truly in all of our hands and we had better start taking better care of it.

Sort of reminds me of the sculpture at our library. I mean the stainless steel part of the figure.

I love the sentiment of that sculpture. Thank you for the reminder.

Good afternoon!
First off, I promise I’m not spam. I’m with Turner Publishing and we have a new title called “Historic Photos of Phoenix” by local author Eduardo Pagan. This 10x10 gift book is a pictorial narrative of the history of Phoenix told through beautiful, culled-from-the-archives black and white photos, some never before viewed. I’m contacting local bloggers/freelancers because we were wondering if we could send you a complimentary copy for possible review on your blog. Please let me know if you might be interested in this wonderful book of your city! If so, please just email me back with a physical address and I’ll ship one out to you right away. Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you soon.
Best,
Liz Chenery
