April 19, 2023 at 11:21 pmJust before Easter NASA announced the crew for next year’s Artemis 2 mission, which will be the first manned endeavor to the moon in more than 50 years. Selected to pilot the spacecraft was Captain Victor Glover, a California native and Navy air combat veteran who will be the first African American on a lunar mission. Glover is also a committed follower of Jesus Christ.

April 19, 2023 at 11:22 pmDuring his first trip off-planet in 2020, Glover brought pre-packaged communion cups and a Bible with him to the International Space Station so he could worship online with his home congregation each Sunday. And when he was selected as the Artemis 2 pilot, Glover sought to honor God in his press statement.

April 19, 2023 at 11:23 pm“I very intentionally put God at the front, in the very first comment, and at the end,” Glover later told Christianity Today. “It’s the way I try to live my life as well. The beginning, the end, and all the way through.”

April 19, 2023 at 11:28 pm“Together, these test flights will demonstrate the capabilities we need to land humans on the moon and enable long-term missions for decades to come,” a NASA official said in 2018 when describing Artemis 2. “We will take the experience gained exploring the moon to prepare for the next giant leap to Mars.”

April 19, 2023 at 11:30 pmTelling his hometown NBC affiliate that his selection for this special team was “humbling and shocking,” the inspirational value of the mission is not lost on Glover. Nor is its gravity.

April 19, 2023 at 11:32 pm“We know the risks we’re talking about,” he told Christianity Today. “ This is the first flight of the vehicle.” Glover finished his interview with Christianity Today with an appeal for prayer. 🔴He asked that fellow believers, “Pray for our crew. Pray for the hardware. Pray for the team all around the world that support this.”
