Nate Mihelis
Journey Elder
My name is Nate Mihelis, I’ve been a Christian for a little over 30 years. Dawn and I are high school sweethearts and have been happily married for 22 years and we have two wonderful children - Noah and Sophia. I love studying the bible and helping people. At the core of what I believe are two truths: 1) God is absolutely sovereign; He has the power and the authority to do whatever He pleases; and 2) He is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.

Joe Williams
Journey Elder
I grew up in a Christian Family in the suburbs of Chicago and while I definitely knew of God throughout my youth, I don’t really believe that I loved Jesus and gave my life to Him until I was at a youth conference in high school. Since then, my Christian Walk has been one of learning to rest in the love of Christ and not trying to earn my acceptance which is something I spent many years trying to do. After college, I married my beautiful wife Amy, joined the Army and attended medical school and residency. As such, Amy and I have lived in many different parts of the country and served in several different churches and denominations. In May 2020 God clearly called us to the Mount Washington Valley, which is coincidentally where Amy grew up. One of our reservations prior to moving was worrying about finding a church that faithfully preached the gospel in New England. We were so thankful to find Journey Church right as the pandemic started. In the winter of 2022, Pastor Trevor asked me to step into the role of elder at Journey Church. After much prayer and discernment, I accepted the role. It has been incredible to watch how God has been faithful to Journey Church over the last several years. I am truly excited to see what God will do in the coming years and grateful to be a part of it.
Austin Woodward
Journey Elder
My name is Austin Woodward. Heather, our 5 boys, and I have been attending Journey church since 2014. I first visited Journey because I heard that the word was preached without compromise. For me, that is number one in any church that I would become a member of. I believe God has given me a passion to come along the side other men specifically to help disciple but at the same time be discipled. I’m in a period of my life right now where prayers have become so much more important to me, but also to the men’s group as a whole. To see the growth in men because of prayer has been amazing.

Chris Boewe
Journey Elder
My name is Chris Boewe. My wife Julie and I and our eight kids have been attending the Journey Church since 2020. Julie and I recently became members of the church, and I have followed her lead into helping with various children's ministry projects.
Throughout my life God has granted me many opportunities to serve high-school youth through the Christian Youth Conference at Ocean Park Maine, and the Lifebridge mentoring program, as well as leading the youth group at the Madison Baptist church.
Most of my free time is spent following my children to their various activities but when I do get a little time I love being outdoors hunting and fishing with family.
