Music Minister

Jeff came to Lisbon in 2012 and from an early age he was singing at church, following his dad’s path as a Minister of Music. Before coming on staff full-time in 2015, Jeff worked in the insurance industry while serving bi-vocationally as Music Minister for 25+ years.

A native Georgian, Jeff was born in Albany before moving all around the Southeast while his dad served in the Marines and ending his high school years in Riverdale, GA. Jeff has been married to his high school sweetheart Connie for 44 years and they have 3 children and 14 grandchildren. Aside from Jesus and his family, Jeff also loves to sing and cheer for UGA football.

Bryan Parrish began leading the fellowship here at Lisbon in 2023. He completed his undergraduate work at Liberty University in 2005 and has earned two Master’s degrees. Bryan is originally from South Georgia and has served churches in Georgia and Florida. He is married to Codie and they have four wonderful Children: Paxton, Baylee Kate, Ezekiel and Zion. They also just found out that number Five will be born in August 2024.

He spends as much time as he can having great adventures with his family. In his spare time he enjoys hunting and fishing. The Lord has placed a strong passion in Bryan to carry out a two-part vision in the church: To lead the lost into a Spirit-filled relationship with Christ; and to disciple the saved as fully devoted followers of Christ. He believes this is done by an unwavering commitment to preaching the word of God, as well as loving people where they are with the hope that others will see Jesus in him.
