Carmen Hodges
The Hebrew definition of the name Carmen is “song” and certainly, Carmen Hodges has lived up to the name. Born with music in her soul, Carmen began writing songs in her early teens. By age 20 she had formed a band and was involved in the music industry for most of her life. Today you can often find her at the Valley Spiritual Center’s Sunday service spinning familiar melodies sometimes accompanied with her own improvised lyrics. A lover of the arts, books and the spiritual path, it could be said that Carmen is delivering a prayer while telling a story with every song she sings.

Laura Berglund
Laura refers to herself as a dabbler having a wide variety of interest and became fascinated with the Occult through a relative who had a wide variety of Paranormal experiences going on which intrigued her. Her mother was a very accurate reader and believes at one time in history was a seer. Together they have explored Tarot. Astro traveling seems to come as natural as breathing to Laura. She has always had that extra sense of things which she admits she has ignored many times…with regret. She has had prophetic dreams with premonitions and actually prayed for the Science of Mind Church to be available for her to attend, driving by it for a period of time not realizing that it is was the place she had prayed for.
