Play Ball and Connect! is A retreat that celebrates the spirit of baseball, fellowship, and the joy of being together in the Arizona sun
The PLAY BALL AND CONNECT! retreat will inspire you to embrace the joy of baseball, deepen your connections through fellowship, celebrate the game, and follow your faith in every inning of life.
Dave’s love for baseball started with his mom’s encouraging words, “Go out and play!” This retreat captures that spirit, blending the excitement of the game with moments of spiritual reflection.
- PLAY BALL… You’ll dive deeper into the call to fellowship and explore how baseball can be a metaphor for life and faith.
- CONNECT… You’ll share in the joy of the game while connecting with others, all set against the stunning Arizona desert backdrop.
- CELEBRATE… You’ll relive the playful excitement of childhood through baseball, worship, and the camaraderie of new friends.
Join Dave and fellow baseball enthusiasts for an unforgettable Spring Training experience in Arizona, where the stories shared and the games watched will inspire you to celebrate life, faith, and the joy of America’s favorite pastime with passion.
The retreat features baseball-themed entertainment and films, and fellowship around our beautiful pool and campus facilities. You’ll also enjoy breakfast and dinner provided each day, prepared carefully by our fantastic chef, Chef Karl. This fellowship and baseball retreat will explore the interconnection of faith and sport, offering a unique opportunity to celebrate both in our vibrant Arizona setting.
