Ronna Nouri

Administrative Assistant to the Senior Associate Pastor + Care Assistant

What is your role at HOPE, in your own words?

I have two roles at HOPE. I am the administrative support to the Senior Associate Pastor. I also assist with congregational care concerns, focusing mainly on coordinating memorials and funerals, supporting the families through the process and planning of services.

What’s your favorite verse/passage of scripture and why?

Ezekiel 36:26 – I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.
This verse is a great reminder that God can change what we cannot on our own.

What’s something that brings you joy?

Meaningful relationships, seeing other people truly enjoy something, and seeing my kids thrive.

What’s your go-to comfort food or coffee order?

I do not drink coffee so probably delicious homemade soup or homemade guacamole and chips.

If you could instantly become an expert in something, what would it be?

Interior design or preparing French cuisine

What’s something people might not know about you?

I am really good at identifying songs within the first few seconds (so I have been told). But it also depends on the genre.
