Pastor Daryl A. Perkins
Secretary
On April 13, 2008, Pastor Perkins became the Senior Pastor of Eternal Life Christian Center, in Franklin, NJ. Previously, Pastor Perkins was the Under-Shepherd of Triumphant Life Community Church (TLCC) where he led the congregation through a successful revitalization process that resulted in TLCC’s position as a vibrant resource in the Trenton community.

Hailing from Chicago Illinois, Daryl A. Perkins felt the calling of the Lord as young as 9 years, and was very active in the church and continued that participation while attending Johnson C. Smith University. Pastor Perkins humble beginnings as ministry leader began under the leadership of Bishop Herbert L. Bright. It was at Faith Tabernacle Church, in Plainfield, NJ where his development in the ministry flourished, rising from Associate Minister, to Elder and finally to ordained overseer.

Before joining Triumphant Life Community Church, Pastor Perkins joined the body of Eternal Life Christian Center where he served as an Associate Minister and Sunday School Superintendent. However, while serving in the Pastorate at TLCC, he began to sense God preparing him for a change and through a series of “fleece like” events it became clear that God was calling him back to Eternal Life Christian Center. Following his greatest goal in life of being faithful to the Lords call, Pastor Perkins returned to Eternal Life Christian church, where today, he translates God will for our lives into the context of our personal life experiences. His greatest passion is connecting people with God’s redeeming love and Saving Grace.

Pastor Daryl A. Perkins has been married to First Lady Robin Perkins for 27 years. Together they have raised four children, Chivonne, Issac , Elise and nephew Maurice.
