How it all started...
The Journey Assembly of God was founded as Oak Harbor Assembly of God in 1961 by a group of people who had a fresh vision to see God work in special ways here on Whidbey Island. They purchased for $1.00 the very first original school house built in Oak Harbor in 1933, which had also served as the community rec center and courthouse, with the Fire Department utilizing the basement. It was moved to its present location where our church currently resides and with some amazing renovations it serves as a beautiful new worship center, functioning well as a tether between the historic past and the exciting future!
Expanding the vision...
Pastor Mark & Michelle Geer came to Oak Harbor in 2013 with a vision to see the city of Oak Harbor impacted with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to lead a discipleship movement that would bring spiritual renewal and transformation to people's lives up and down Whidbey Island. The movement has begun and we welcome you to be a part!

Where we are headed...
The mission of The Journey Assembly of God is to connect people to Jesus. He is the only one who can truly change a life and give people hope for a better tomorrow and an eternal future in the world to come.
Reaching out to touch one life at a time, to connect with families, strengthen marriages, and build hope in our community is what drives the heartbeat of our passion for this city. Somehow, perhaps, in the providence of God, our paths were meant to cross.
In October of 2023, with a desire to have a church name that reflects our mission and purpose, the congregation voted to change the name to The Journey Assembly of God. We believe that every individual is on a spiritual journey and our mission is to point people to faith in Jesus Christ and an eternity in heaven with Him. We encourage you to consider the supernatural life-change that knowing Jesus can bring on your journey of life.
