Becky Parrish
Becky was born in New Jersey and then raised in Kentucky and Pennsylvania before moving to the Midwest! This bright, bubbly lady now resides with her family in Belton and has many unique hobbies; for starters, she raises a variety of farm animals, makes her own goat milk soap, gardens + dabbles in herbalism!
Married for 28 years to her husband Mark, Becky is the proud mother of three sons. Becky’s oldest is an electrician, her middle is a mechanic and her youngest is still at home. For nearly two decades, she has dedicated herself to homeschooling her children while maintaining her own love of learning. Her favorite season is spring because she loves to see the greenery return, life show up again, inspiring and spurring on more of her outdoor activities.
When it comes to Ascension’s core values, family resonates most deeply with Becky, who firmly believes it should always come first. Empowerment follows closely behind, as she finds joy in teaching others skills that enhance their daily lives.
