Melinda Ronn

Board Secretary

Melinda Kay Ronn has worked in ministry and the faith-based space for the greater part of her career. After a degree in journalism and a stint in entertainment, Melinda felt called to use her gifts in helping ministries. Some of her first jobs and clients were Greg Laurie at Harvest Crusades, Miles McPherson at Miles Ahead Ministries, Crystal Lewis at Metro One Records, Raul Ries at Calvary Chapel Golden Springs, and Wycliffe Associates (a complimentary ministry of Wycliffe Bible Translators). In 1998, Melinda started working as a consultant and what she lovingly calls, “an extended 1099 employee” for churches, para-church organizations, and faith-based companies and groups. She has worked with some of the most prominent ministries and pastors in the nation as well as faith-based publishers. But Melinda also enjoys helping start-up ministries, churches, and individuals who have a passion and a mission to share the Gospel or to help make a difference in the lives of those who are hurting, suffering, or down-and-out and needing to see the tangible hands-on love of God.

Though born and raised in Southern California (where as a child she was part of the Jesus People Movement – attending Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa for 23 years), Melinda transplanted to New England in 1999 and enjoys the beauty of the four seasons and being near family. She is a proud mom, relishes the outdoors – especially the beach and summer drives in her Jeep, loves serving at her church, enjoys decorating her house, is an avid reader, and can be found working on her laptop at every unique coffee house she finds!
