So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:27)

Human anatomy is an absolute marvel of design and the pinnacle of God’s creation. The complex combination of muscles, bones, organs, and tissues is a symphony that cries out for a Creator God. Join us for an in-depth look at some of the major body systems with hands-on dissections.

Open to students ages 11 to 18.
