Church Board members serve in governance and accountability. They provide prayerful oversight, help steward resources wisely, and work alongside pastoral leadership to discern direction and maintain the church’s commitment to biblical values and long-term health.
Board President
My name is Phil King, and my faith journey at Journey Church began in February 2023 when my son and I were invited to attend a service.
I’m a lifelong resident of the Heston/Rolling Prairie area and have served as General Manager of Heston, Inc., overseeing Heston Supper Club and Heston Hills Event Center, for 36 years.
I’ve served on Journey’s Board of Directors since October 2025, the New Prairie United School Corporation Board of Trustees since 2012 (Board President since 2020), and the LaPorte Community Federal Credit Union Board since 2022, where I became Advisory Board Chair in January 2026. Known as a “policy junkie,” I enjoy helping organizations operate effectively through thoughtful policy development and improvement.
At Journey, I serve on the Guest Services Team and facilitate a Sustainable Discipleship Group. I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve, grow in faith, and build relationships with my Journey family as we live out our motto: “Jesus First. Others Second. Be Third.”
Board Vice President
Hello, I am Rachel Hall and I am a licensed real estate broker and insurance agent. I have been married to Ryan for 28 years and I am “mom” to Abigail (23) and Amelia (20). I have attended Journey church since it was founded, have been a member for 10 years, and serve on the Guest Services team.
Board Secretary
Hello – I am Nicole Oscarson and I have been a part of Journey since 2019. I have had the privilege of serving in many capacities at Journey. I have served as Youth Pastor, I am a member of the Spiritual Leadership Team, I serve on the Worship team, and this is my second term on the Church Board.
My husband, Kyle, and I have two beautiful daughters and we live in Michigan City. I love baseball, spending times outdoors, and anything coffee related! It is a privilege to serve on the Board, and I am thankful for the opportunity to serve in this capacity.
Board Treasurer
Hello, I am Brian Morros. My wife, Nikki, and I have been at Journey since 2025. I have lived in La Porte County my entire life. My wife and I have been married 29 years, and we have three children, Zack, Ayden, and Addysen, and two grandchildren. As for work, I am a project manager in South Bend for MTI. I serve on the worship team at Journey playing the drums. My wife and I have led a Rooted group, and we currently serve in the marriage ministry, where we desire to come along side marriages to help strengthen couples’ connection to Christ and each other. It is a privilege to serve on the board, and I look forward to what Christ has in store for Journey Church!
Board Member
Hello, I am Joel Annable, and my wife, Denise, and I were both baptized in 2014 and started attending Journey Church in the fall of 2019. Immediately, we felt welcomed, as though we were part of a large Christian family. We could see that the members of Journey loved Jesus and accepted people without judgment, and we wanted to be a part of that!
Personally, I have helped lead the men’s ministry for many years, served on the Church Board for over three years, served on the tech and greeting teams for six years, and completed many of the discipleship programs Journey offers.
Board Member
Hi, I am Kevin Hutson: Proud graduate of the School of Hard Knocks—no cap and gown, just a lot of life lessons learned the hard way.
I’m a friendly guy who loves people and good conversation. These days I’m focused on growing in Christ and learning to seek Him first. You could say I’m a God-fearing, Jesus-following, walk-in-the-Holy spirit kind of guy, just doing my best to follow where He leads one step at a time.
