The Biography Of Apostle Dr. Charles E. Perry, Jr.

Apostle, Dr. Charles E. Perry, Jr., a native of Houston, Texas and is the founder and senior pastor of Word of Restoration International Church, located in Rosharon, Texas. He answered the call of God to preach the gospel in 1984 under the leadership of his father, Pastor Charles E. Perry, Sr.

In the year 2000, during a season of hopelessness and despair, God visited Dr. Perry while he was in the process of carrying out a suicide attempt. In that moment of brokenness, God revealed His plan for Dr. Perry to start the Word of Restoration Church.

The vision God gave him was to Restore Lives with the Word of God and the assignment was to build Him a city, the City of Restoration. Since then, under Dr. Perry’s leadership, God has blessed Word of Restoration with a 48-acre campus, called “The City of Restoration”, where they have currently constructed six facilities amounting to 120,000 square feet. With surrounding cities, counties, and communities that are blessed through the ministry, there are thousands who call Word of Restoration home. In the words of Dr. Perry, the greatest asset and testimony of Word of Restoration are the people and their lives being restored with the Word of God.

Dr. Perry holds a Bachelor of Ministry Degree, a Master’s Degree in Christian Leadership from Union Bible Theological Seminary, and a Doctorate of Ministry Degree from Christian Bible Institute and Seminary. He is the spiritual son of Pastor Steve Houpe of Harvest Church International Outreach in Kansas City, Missouri. With an apostolic call on his life, in May 2019, Dr. Perry enrolled and studied in the Kingdom Bible Institute’ School of the Apostles. Upon successful completion of all required studies, on Sunday, September 22, 2019, in a sacred Affirmation Ceremony led by Apostle Dr. Dana Carson of The R.O.C.K. Church International, Dr. Perry was publicly affirmed as an Apostle to the Body of Christ. He continues to operate in his Apostolic calling, not only as founding Pastor and Visionary of Word of Restoration, but he also facilitates leadership training and development throughout the Body of Christ. As an Apostle, through T.A.C.C. (The Apostle’s Covering and Connection), he provides training, mentorship, and covering for those fivefold Kingdom Leaders, who are called and desire a spiritual connection to him.
As a doctrinal teacher of the Word of God, Apostle Perry has the God-given ability to illuminate and interpret the scriptures for context, application, and relevancy of everyday living. Though Apostle Perry has experienced his share of shame, he stands on the Word of God found in Isaiah 61:7, and his life epitomizes the statement: “When Your Life is Restored, You Shall Have Double”.
Apostle Perry is a devoted husband of 33+ years of marriage to Lady Charlette. They have two children, daughter Belinda, and son-in-law (Donovan Walker), and son, Caleb Perry and daughter-in-law (Brandie). They are also the proud grandparents of five granddaughters, Kennedi, Brelyn, Ciara, Mia, and Brooklyn, and one grandson, Caleb Jr (Deuce).
