Equipping You For Impact

The hope fueling these efforts is that each attendee would leave the REACHgathering inspired, affirmed, connected, and equipped.

Over the course of three days you will have access to choose from dozens of breakout track sessions and be a part of three large group main sessions.

In addition to organized content by some of the leading sports ministry influencers in the world, REACH offers a Sponsor area to connect you to a host of helpful resources. You will leave changed and prepared for a year of ministry where you reach further.
