Janus served as precentor of two churches in Sorau, Silesia; rector at the Evangelical School in Sagan (1653); and pastor near Eckersdorf Gate (1664). He was expelled by Imperial Edict of March 13, 1668, which drove all evangelical pastors and teachers from the principality; it is said Janus became precentor at Ohlau at this time.
