TJ Chesnut

      Minister of Community Gatherings & Operations

      tj@fbcsudbury.org

TJ grew up in a small, rural Georgia town before moving to Massachusetts in 2016. He has a B.S. in Early Childhood Education from Georgia Southwestern State University and an M.Div. in Christian Ministry from Southeastern Theological Seminary. During his youth and college years, TJ experienced the life-changing impact of Christian discipleship and celebrating the goodness of God in corporate worship. These experiences fuel his passion for his ministry at FBCS.

TJ and his wife, Kelli, grew up three hours from each other in the Southeast but met in New England. They enjoy exploring their new home region with their son by visiting interesting places, trying new food, and seeing the beauty of God’s creation through outdoor activities.

Jess Bogle

      Associate of Community Discipleship & Children

      jessica@fbcsudbury.org

Jess grew up in rural Tennessee, blessed with a family who loves Christ. She graduated from Union University with a B.A. in Biblical Studies-Languages and Journalism in 2023 and immediately moved here to serve as an intern. During that time, the Lord put discipleship on her heart, and she is happy to be sticking around to work with community groups and Bible studies. She is also pursuing an M.Div. and a Master’s of Counseling at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary to further her education.

In her free time, Jess can be found soaking up all the sunshine, reading a book, or working on a photo project. She loves being able to live and serve in a place she never imagined herself, and she can’t wait to see what the Lord does here.
