I love attending the REACH Gathering because I know my soul will be refreshed! Gathering with other sportspeople to make much of Jesus, be equipped to better proclaim the gospel and make disciple-makers through the context of sport, and have fun is why I look forward to this time every year.
— Josh Breffle, attending REACH 2023

REACH is not just a conference. It is a multi-day gathering uniting a diverse community of church sports, recreation and fitness leaders around the globe.

REACHgathering leadership consists of a collaboration between 3 ministries and 4 local churches united together to see the Gospel advanced through local church sports, recreation, and fitness ministry.

REACH is more than an event.  It is a movement, a growing movement, of reproducing gospel-centered sports, recreation, and fitness leaders.

Come expecting God to move - to use this time together to make you more effective in ministry - something we’ve seen him do since the beginning of REACH.

// We Have Fuel For The Full & The Weary

Ministry is no 9-5 job. It takes the demands of an ordinary job plus the ongoing demand to be spiritually healthy, pursue life-giving conversations, and maintain balance in life. It’s a difficult role that God has asked you to fulfill.

God has also called you into community. You are not meant to walk through your vocation alone.

Through REACH you will find like-minded people, resources, tools, encouragement, and a support system to push you into your most impactful year.

REACH is not here to tell you how to work harder. REACH is here to provide an environment where we collectively surrender to God, learn to walk in the power of the Gospel and connect with like-minded ministers as we do His work.
