SONGWRITER’S VISION: Ms. Perkins reports that her songs are birthed out of her daily meditation time, tests, trials and victories. She is a member of Monument of Faith Church (world renown pastor, Apostle Richard D. Henton) in Chicago, Ill. She attributes her love for God to the example set by her mother, Mrs. Mamie Marshall. Ms. Perkins has been married for 27 years, has 2 adult sons and 2 granddaughters. She retired from Dept. Children & Fam Svc. after 28 years and is now employed as a Clinical Therapist for the mentally ill. She is a LPC, received BA in Human Svc, and MA in counseling from Chicago State Univ. Ms. Perkins's vision is that her music will be recorded by anointed, consecrated recording artists in the near future and that God will be glorified in all of her endeavors. | | |
