Rachael Reville, Children's Director & Office Administrator
Stow has been my home for nearly 20 years. My husband, Jeff and I bought our first home here and quickly fell in love with the community! We’ve been blessed with two beautiful children: Ava and Elianna. Before starting our family, I had a successful career as a Paralegal & HR Generalist. However, through God’s calling I decided to stay at home with the kids while they were very young. It has been a molding experience, and God has used it to show me the great importance of instilling His word in the lives of children.
It is my privilege to serve God at Fishcreek Nazarene Church as the Children’s Ministry Director. My desire is that each child would come to know Jesus in a personal way. That they would be able to have the knowledge and certainty that only He can provide as they learn to navigate this world.
In my free time I especially enjoy painting, gardening, and exploring our amazing parks with my family!
If you are new or interested in finding out more about our Children’s Ministry, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I look forward to meeting you!

Courtney's love for the Lord shines bright. She grew up in a pastor's household, and from an early age, she would sing for her church on Sundays. She attended Mount Vernon Nazarene University, where she majored in middle school education and minored in reading intervention.
While in college, she was part of the university's music and ministry teams, traveling and performing at various churches. She also assisted in the chapel's worship bands.
She has led worship throughout her years of ministry with her husband as pastor, and now leading worship here at FishcreekNaz is one of her greatest joys.
Her joys are raising her two children and spoiling her dog, Shelby. She also loves murder documentaries.
