This beautiful artistic sculpture is outside the Avera Heart Hospital and Clinics. The plaque reads:
“To Be Well. Sculptor: Darwin Wolf, Dedication: June 16, 2004. Realistic hands and an abstract suggestion of doves flow together to symbolize the healing ministry of the Benedictine and Presentation Sisters through Avera Health. Christ’s presence in this ministry is portrayed in the larger hand; the role of the Sisters and the Avera caregivers in prayerfully carrying out the ministry is portrayed in the hand that holds a rosary. Viewed from the other side, the hands suggest doves, symbol of peace, healing and the Holy Spirit. Both hands and doves lift upward, expressing the hope for physical and spiritual wellness embodied in the word Avera, which means ‘to be well.’”
