Today, the Atlantic Union Conference Executive Committee elected Abraham J. Jules to serve as the new president of the Atlantic Union Conference, effective immediately. The vote was to fill the position previously held by Pierre E. Omeler, who was elected on April 10 to serve as a general vice president for the General Conference.

Prior to today’s vote, Jules served as president of the Northeastern Conference, a position to which he was elected during the 2021 conference constituency session. Jules previously pastored in the Northeastern Conference for more than 36 years during which time his administrative skills helped many churches grow and expand.

Jules and his wife, Dominique, are parents of two young adult children.

As president, Jules joins the administrative team, directors, and staff to oversee the work of six conferences: Bermuda, Greater New York, New York, Northeastern, Northern New England, and Southern New England. The membership of the Atlantic Union currently stands at 134,701, and the territory includes 617 churches, 93 groups, 43 elementary and secondary schools, and numerous community-based ministries (Atlantic Union Conference Second Quarter 2024 Secretary’s Statistical Report).
