Spotlight on The Parish Family

The Country Christian band known throughout as The Parish Family is made up of Ronnie Parish, his wife Kesha and his brother Mark, carrying on the legacy that began almost 40 years ago with their father Rev. B. H. Parish and recently signed a publicity and media agreement with MCM Universal, LLC.

“We reformed the group in 1999 and our purpose today is the same as it was when the band first got started and that’s to spread the Gospel and show others the love, mercy, grace and saving power of Jesus Christ,” said Kesha.

The Parish Family signed a recording contract with Homeland Entertainment Group under the Heartwarming label and went to Nashville in June to record their song for the new CD “Back on the Wheel.”

“This CD includes some of the biggest names in Country, like Alan Jackson, Jason Crabb and George Jones,” said Kesha. “The CD will be available in November and all the proceeds will go to build churches and orphanages in Costa Rico and the Philippines.”

Kesha said that they keep their songs original because through each of their experiences they have a genuine testimony.

“Ronnie was paralyzed in 1999 and I’ve had poor health myself and we’ve been able to use what we’ve been through to help people through the trials they may be facing now,” said Kesha. “All of our songs are based on our own very personal messages of how we’ve pulled through time and time again.”

Kesha said that they’ve seen their recent successes, such as the two Number 1 hits on the national Christian music charts “Pray For Me” and “Jesus Is.”

“God’s really blessed us with the ability to reach and share with more and more people His glory and His kingdom,” Kesha. “Our big message and the title of our last album is ‘Branches’ based on John 3:15, He is the vine and we are the branches; we’re nothing without Him.”
