MALIBU—Author Trey Louis Noran is also a minister and reverend to the homeless in Denver, Colo. I caught up with the part-time Malibu resident this week to discuss his passion of making a difference in the lives of the homeless. Trey has received countless letters of support and commendation from politicians and high profile celebrities, including one of the most famous of Bel Air residents, former President Ronald Reagan. Noran’s the godson of the late movie actress, Mae West, who was a huge star at Paramount Studios during Hollywood’s golden age.
Noran specializes in Biblical principles, and in a simple way, emphasizes the power of love and having a positive attitude, along with the grace of God. There's no fire and brimstone preaching. The author and minister tries to outreach throughout the homeless community around the nation and bring help to the needy. Noran Attended Clayton College Boys School and graduated from Rose Ministry. Trey Noran was born Louis Anthony Olguin to parents Gloria and Louis Olguin.
Because of his affluent childhood, Noran spent his youth in private schools for boys and had traveled the world by the tender age of 15. He has also done some acting and commercial parts. Early in his life, while searching for his purpose in the world, he traveled to Las Vegas where he became friends with some of the biggest names in the entertainment world, and he worked for MGM. Trey still visits and does outreach in Vegas as well.
Trey Noran spoke exclusively with Canyon News about his latest mission in life and his dream of opening a hotel for the homeless.
Q-Trey, are you an ordained minister?
A-“I prefer to be called Reverend for the streets!”
Q-What makes you want to help the homeless and what are your goals?
A-“God placed on my heart a vision for the homeless in 1989 and then again in 2009. He gave me a vision of a homeless hotel for the Denver, Colorado area, and also an outreach center in Las Vegas and if God wills it, centers from New York to Reno, Nevada are on my agenda.”
Q-How can people find out about your charity and how can they help your cause?
A-“They can go to my websites at Hislovestreetministries.com or
Realmenlove2cuddle.com and learn more about my work and hopefully make a donation."
Q-How did the dream for His Love Street Hotel come about?
A-“Tommy, Jesus has a plan for each one of us. My true love is Jesus, and his will. In February of 2009, he placed this vision of a unique hotel that I have a picture drawing on my wall that will help many that have given up hope, and to give them the tools needed from education, to believing in themselves, and a place to stay until they are on their feet.”
Trey spoke highly of a new up and coming singer in Hollywood named Brett Mikels, who will assist Reverend Noran in a fundraiser called “The Stars Give Back.” “I think it’s wonderful how celebrities here support efforts in Haiti and throughout the world. However, we have needs right here at home. Lots of these people are one paycheck from becoming homeless and the stars and celebrities need to offer help to those who have put them where they are today,” said Trey. “If people can help, go on to the websites I gave previously and purchase a tee shirt called “Real Men Love 2 Cuddle,” that I just made a trademark for which shows the sensitive side of a man. All proceeds go to the homeless.”
