George R. Brunk II (November 18, 1911 – April 21, 2002) was an American preacher, evangelist, and educator whose ministry within the Mennonite Church spanned over 65 years, marked by tent revivals and theological leadership. Born in Denbigh, Virginia, to George Reuben Brunk, an evangelist and fruit farmer, and Catherine “Katie” Wenger, he was the sixth of nine children in a devout Mennonite family. Converted as a youth, he graduated from Eastern Mennonite School (1930), earned a B.A. from the College of William and Mary (1946), and completed a B.D. (1949), Th.M. (1965), and Th.D. (1967) from Union Theological Seminary in Richmond, Virginia. Brunk’s preaching career began with his ordination in 1934 at Warwick River Mennonite Church, where he founded Warwick River Christian School in 1942 while farming peaches and apples. In 1951, he launched the Brunk Brothers Revival Campaign with his brother Lawrence, holding over 100 tent crusades across North America through the early 1980s, seating thousands under canvas to hear his bold, sin-denouncing sermons—preserved on SermonIndex.net. A professor at Eastern Mennonite College (1949–1978) and dean of Eastern Mennonite Seminary (1967–1976), he co-edited Sword and Trumpet (1943–2001), advocating conservative doctrine. Married twice—first to Margaret Suter in 1933, with whom he had five children (Gerald, George III, Paul, Conrad, and Barbara), until her death in 1999, then to Rhoda Weber Neer in 2001—he passed away at age 90 in Harrisonburg, Virginia.
