Joseph Renwick Randon
Joseph Renwick Randon is the founder and visionary behind Big Prayer Museum — a Global Living Museum dedicated to preserving memory, elevating story, and inviting people into a shared mission of purpose and participation.
His roots in the Big Prayer area and the inspiration drawn from his grandmother’s legacy shaped a vision that extends far beyond any single location: a living record of faith, culture, and human connection carried forward in public form.
The museum is not built as a personal monument, but as a living record — a place where story becomes stewardship, and where the next generation can enter the narrative with clarity and courage.
Big Prayer is not just a place to visit — it is a place to enter the story, take your position, and help move the mission forward.
— Joseph Renwick Randon
Big Prayer Place
The physical place where memory, objects, and story come together.
Big Prayer Place is the museum’s living ground — the rooms, paths, and gathering spaces where visitors first meet the story in material form.
From the structure itself to the arrangement of artifacts and light, every detail is shaped to carry memory forward with dignity and warmth.
It is both anchor and invitation: a real site where reflection becomes encounter, and where the documentary narrative steps off the page and into lived experience.
The Roots of Big Prayer
Before it became a museum, Big Prayer was already a place of memory, meaning, and legacy.
Big Prayer Museum began in the roots — in the memory, land, family legacy, and lived story of Big Prayer.
Before it became a museum, Big Prayer carried meaning through people, place, and inherited memory. It was created to preserve what came before and carry it forward with purpose.
The museum now gives form to those roots as a living record for future generations.
