At REACHGathering, you can expect an energizing few days surrounded by leaders who are passionate about using sports, rec, and fitness to impact lives. You'll gain fresh ideas and encouragement for your ministry through powerful main sessions, practical breakouts, and meaningful conversations. It’s a space to be equipped, inspired, and connected with others who share the same heartbeat—leveraging the influence of sports, rec, and fitness to reach their communities.
Take time to hear from our FBC Trussville host, Jonathan Edwards!!
At ReachGathering, we love partnering with churches as they expand recreation, fitness, and sports ministry in their communities.
The 2027 theme is on the way - stay tuned for the reveal. You won’t want to miss this.
