Rhonda Kersey has lived in Phoenix since Spring of 2008. She found New Vision Center on an internet search in early 2009 after realizing she was the entity “causing” her life! She has since taken many SOM classes and was on the Leadership Council from 2012 to 2014. Rhonda is a project manager by profession and enjoys working in a team environment and mastering the art of chaotic order while wielding a spreadsheet and Google tools. Rhonda is married with two daughters at home; Renee and Jamie (and 3 kitties who run the house), 3 older children who live in Texas, Vegas and Maui, and 4 grandchildren! Rhonda considers New Vision Center her Spiritual Home. In her words, “This is the place I come to remember who I am when I forget. NVC is more than a once a week church to me. NVC is my tribe, my village and my safe spot. The love that permeates this place is tangible. Here I am recognized as who I really am and loved just exactly the way I am. I haven’t always allowed myself to feel that. I receive that love now with a grateful heart.”
