Mark & Cheryl Perry

Mark & Cheryl met at the San Luis Obispo Vineyard church in 1985, fell in love, got married, and started a family. After working as a carpenter and then as a public school teacher, Mark joined the staff of the SLO church to help plant the Five Cities Vineyard church, where he became senior pastor in 1992. After establishing a thriving, growing church, Mark & Cheryl moved their family to the Midwest to establish another Vineyard church in the inner city. It was there, going door-to-door in the projects week after week, that Mark & Cheryl’s love for the poor and broken grew. In 2002, Mark & Cheryl returned to the Central Coast with a fresh vision to establish a regional church and apostolic center that was wholehearted, relational, and missional. Shortly thereafter, they visited Iris Ministries in Mozambique and Everyday Church was birthed. About this time Mark and a team also established a house of prayer, and Mark wrote his first book called Building Kingdom Churches. Everyday was the first Iris Church in the US and Iris Central Coast emerged shortly after as a global missions base, reaching both our neighbors and the nations with the love of Jesus. Working alongside Mark and Cheryl is a dynamic network of guest speakers and an amazing team of laid-down lovers, passionate about Jesus and His glory on the earth.
