The Speakers

Pastor Jenks Brutus is a graduate of Andrews University, where he earned a degree in Pastoral Ministry. Following his studies, he accepted a pastoral call with the Northeastern Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, serving as Associate Pastor at the Temple Salem SDA Church in Boston, Massachusetts. After three and a half years in that role, Pastor Brutus embraced God’s call to full-time evangelism with Real Truth Ministries, a self-supporting ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

One of the great highlights of his ministry came during an evangelistic outreach in Cape Town, South Africa, where, working alongside several ministers, over 600 souls were led to Christ. Pastor Brutus has since conducted evangelistic crusades, weeks of prayer, seminars, and counseling ministries in numerous cities across the United States.

In 2008, he was called to shepherd the Friendship SDA Church in Elmira, New York, where he and his family completed four years of spirit-filled service. In 2012, he accepted a new assignment to the Gordon Heights and Central Islip churches in Long Island, New York. Four years later, in 2016, he was transferred to the Shiloh SDA Church in Springfield, Massachusetts, where he inspired members to live Christ-centered, Spirit-filled lives. Most recently, in January 2022, Pastor Brutus was appointed to serve as Pastor of The Waymark SDA Church in Boston, Massachusetts.

In addition to his pastoral ministry, Pastor Brutus is a member of Faith Writers, an international community of Christian writers, and has published articles on the Christian journey. He is blessed to share ministry with his lovely wife, the former Nancy Bien-Aime, a dedicated nurse. Together with their three children, Jedidiah, Hannah, and Sarah, they are committed to serving the Lord wherever He leads.

Pastor Brutus lives by the words of D. L. Moody: “Consecrate, then Concentrate”—doing all things to the glory of God.

Dr. Pastor James W. Dieujuste considers himself richly blessed by God. Born in Haiti to Seventh-day Adventist parents, he cherishes the privilege of having been nurtured through a Christian Adventist education—an experience that shaped both his faith and his calling. In 2001, he graduated from Boston University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, concentrating in Management Information Systems. After several years in the business sector, he sensed the Lord’s call to pastoral ministry. Responding in faith, he enrolled at Andrews University, where he earned a Master of Divinity degree in 2010. That same year, he accepted a call to serve in the Lake Region Conference, pastoring churches in Michigan and Illinois. In 2014, he was ordained into the gospel ministry, and in 2018, he completed a second Master’s degree in Religion with a concentration in Theological Studies from Andrews University.

Later in 2018, the Lord led Dr. Dieujuste back to the Northeast. He first taught at Berea Seventh-day Adventist Academy (now Northeastern Adventist Academy, Boston Campus) before being called by the Northeastern Conference to serve as Associate Pastor of Temple Salem SDA Church in Boston. Continuing to expand his academic and professional preparation, he earned a PhD in Business Administration from the University of Montemorelos, Mexico, in 2023. Dr. Dieujuste has served in pastoral ministry for 13 years and is currently the pastor of Bridgeport Tabernacle Seventh-day Adventist Church in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

He is married to a wonderful devoted woman of God, and together they are raising two amazing sons. Dr. Dieujuste deeply loves the Lord and is committed to serving Him faithfully for the rest of his life. He lives with the conviction that the Second Coming of Christ is near, and his greatest desire is to be ready for that day, and to prepare others to be ready as well.
