Founder & Pastor
Meet Parris Howard
Pastor Parris Howard is a servant of Christ from Louisville, Kentucky. He gave his life to Christ at twelve, was licensed to preach in 2021, and is planting The Union from a conviction that people should be shepherded wholly, not partially.
After walking through multiple denominational and educational seasons, Parris noticed a gap: ministries that formed gifts without forming the person, or guarded doctrine without making room for the Spirit. The Union is his answer to that grief.
After God, his first ministry is home. He is the husband of Ashleigh and the father of Jianni and Damani.
What we believe
Rooted in Scripture. Anchored in Christ. Alive in the Spirit.
Come as you are. Become who God designed.
We want you with us for everything God is building through The Union Louisville.
