Alpharetta, Ga.—The Southern Baptist North American Mission Board has appointed two Kentucky Baptist Convention Mission Board staff members as missionaries.

Coy Webb, disaster relief associate with the KBC’s Baptist Men on Mission department, and his wife, Cathy, were appointed by NAMB as missionaries to the state. Webb joined the Mission Board staff last October. He provides leadership in the areas of disaster relief, Baptist Builders, men’s ministry and missions education.

Previously, Webb served as pastor at First Baptist Church of Monticello, Niles Ferry Baptist Church in Greenback, Tenn., as well as churches in Missouri and Kansas. He also served as an on-site coordinator with the Kansas/Nebraska Baptist Convention.

A native of Shelbyville, Webb is a graduate of University of Tennessee in Knoxville and Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Mo. He also attended Air Force Chaplain School in Alabama.

His wife, Cathy, studied at Draughon’s Business College and University of Tennessee, both in Knoxville. The Webbs have two sons, Matthew and Marc.

Teresa Parrett, who has served as state missions mobilization coordinator since April, also was recently appointed as a NAMB missionary. Based in Somerset, Parrett is responsible for connecting long- and short-term missions teams with KBC churches, associations and ministries in the state. She had served the convention since 1999 as a regional consultant. Immediately prior to her new role, she worked closely with Appalachian Regional Ministry Director Bill Barker.

Parrett is a graduate of Eastern Kentucky University and attended Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville.
