Perry and his wife Jill have lived in West Lebanon and raised their five children in the Upper Valley since 1988. Jill’s connection to Valley Bible Church dates back to 1972, when her father, Eli Mercer, served as the pastor there. Upon marriage, Perry and Jill initially served with Cru at Dartmouth College, where they settled in the Upper Valley. Perry has spent the last 36 years working in the facilities field for two local businesses. He is now semi-retired, which allows him to devote more time to ministering in the church. Outside of Perry's personal interest and professional background in construction and real estate, he enjoys sports, particularly playing ice hockey. Jill and Perry enjoy taking long drives on New England backroads. They both share a deep passion for the Valley Bible Church family and look forward to continuing to serve in the coming years.
