In 2025, Hannah has been studying theology at a Bible school. Her passion is to become a missionary and bring the Gospel to unreached people groups. Her faith journey started eight years ago at a baseball camp in Germany, where Americans came and shared the Gospel through sports. It transformed her life and changed the trajectory of her future… and that is why we do what we do!
Baseball Outreach in Europe
For 15+ years, Breakaway Outreach has been mobilizing mission teams to facilitate baseball camps and other sports ministries in Europe. Listen to some of our camp leaders in Italy, UK, and Germany, share how this ministry is reaching people far from God and transforming lives.
Europe a Forgotten Mission Field
Europe has been described as one of the most forgotten mission fields of our day. Once at the epicenter of the sending church, today it is a region where the church has faced attrition. The church in Europe has the lowest growth rate at 1.1% annually. Europe’s cities, through their diverse populations and activities, produce connections with individuals and cultures from around the world. Imagine what would happen if that influence could be harnessed to extend God’s Kingdom.
Why Baseball?
Baseball is a relatively unknown sport in Germany. Having Americans instruct baseball is not only engaging for German youth, it impacts entire families and communities. Utilizing baseball camps for 8-18 year old young people has proven to be groundbreaking in its effectiveness to share the gospel.
Short Term Mission Trips
Our sports camp partnerships in Germany have expanded beyond baseball. We now provide short term mission trips for Americans to serve in Germany coaching baseball, basketball, ultimate frisbee, flag football, volleyball and more. Contact us about mission trip dates and opportunities to serve.
