Nancy Harkins - President:

“The definition of Evolution is awakening to the power and presence of Spirit within.”
Ernest Holmes



In June 1987 I entered a SOM church for the first time. I cried throughout each service I attended as I realized “I am home, this is the TRUTH I had always instinctively known”. In March 1989 I found my people right here in New Vision Center. This center has been and continues to be a blessing to so many people over these 34 plus years. NVC is a leader in the Centers for Spiritual Living community at large. Specifically this is due to our unique organizational configuration. A structure that has supported and guided us through many changes and challenges because of our commitment to living a vision statement that has sustained us. Throughout these years I have served in numerous capacities. Having taken many classes and previously serving as a Practitioner I have observed evolution and growth in our teaching, as well as our community. As I continue to take classes, read, and study I continue to evolve, and it is reflected in professional growth as well. I am honored to serve as President of our beloved community for the coming year. My commitment is to appeal to the leader in each of our precious partners, members, and new guests of all ages. Together we do great things as we continue to evolve both personally and as a community, we Reveal the Power of Love.

Mark Haldane - Vice President:

Letting go gives us freedom, the only condition for happiness.

I have been attending NVC since 2016. I am pleased to serve on the Finance Team in addition to the Leadership Council and Vision Group. I enjoy participating in the Men's Group, as well. I am blessed to call NVC my spiritual home. I am grateful for the role it and many of you have played in my journey to manifest my best life. I can unequivocally state that my life is demonstrably better since coming to NVC and applying the principles taught here. I appreciate the opportunity to serve this community and encourage you to talk to me about leadership as I enter my final year on the Leadership Council.

Jeff Miller - Treasurer:

Realizing Our Good


I was swept into NVC's uplifting whirlwind of Spirit, love, learning, and new ideas eight years ago. It's been an exciting ride, filled with self-discovery, joy, gratitude, and community. It's not over. I know the best is yet to come for my NVC family and me. I am proud to be Hoosier, grateful for 59 loving years with my wife Sue, delighted with my three children and seven grandchildren, sustained by my friends, thankful for a stimulating career as a teacher and business consultant, and pleased to serve.

Bill Sneed - Secretary:

Supporting all as a beneficial presence.

I was introduced to Religious Science in 2001 by my beloved Rev. Karen Russo. I found New Vision Center and was licensed as a practitioner in 2005. I am now retired from a work life in management and technical roles at commercial nuclear power electric generating facilities. I have served at NVC in many roles, including a previous blessed time on the Leadership Council. Life Is Good!

Marty Stephens – Stewardship:

I am living from love and joy


I first found Science of Mind in 1982. Over the years I've taken numerous classes to deepen my understanding and application of Science of Mind principles. The results in my life have been amazing! I became a Practitioner in 2001 and love helping people to also transform their lives using this teaching. This year I serve on the Leadership Council, where my focus is the Stewardship Program. This vital initiative plays a critical role in ensuring the prosperity and growth of our entire community, and I feel honored to be part of its implementation this year

Tom Rose - Online Community:


I came to Science of Mind in 1993 at the Santa Rosa Center. Arrived at New Vision Center in 2012 by way of the Lake Havasu Center. I served on the Board of the Lake Havasu Center and the Leadership Council of New Vision Center for a previous term before this one. My background is in Accounting and Finance with lots of coursework in Psychology. I have served on several non-profit boards other than Centers for Spiritual Living. Science of Mind has been my spiritual home since the first service I attended. I love the way decisions are made by consensus at NVC. The process ensures that everyone is on board before something is undertaken. Egos are parked at the door (or just abandoned). My focus this year is on growing the online community and working to provide programs, and ministries that tie our online partners together. I welcome comment and suggestions on expansions and improvements to our online presence. Contact me at tcrose0909@gmail.com or text me at 480-220-6584.

I am living from Gratitude!

This is an amazing community where we are all welcome. I have served on the Finance Team and I have been thrilled to watch our financial progress. We are just getting started and the best is still in our future. I am very privileged to serve on the Leadership Council where I lead a very strong Safety and Security Team.
