Danielle's Story

Joining a pickleball small group sounded like a fun way to get connected at church. But not long after, Danielle found herself in a serious health crisis and a season filled with uncertainty. In this story, Danielle shares how her small group became real community in the middle of it all and how God met her through community. Through prayer, encouragement, and consistent support on and off the court, she was able to walk through this season with faith and perseverance, trusting God each step of the way. God works in so many ways—even through the members of a pickleball group. If you’re looking for a place to belong, we’d love to help you find a small group. Visit https://saddleback.com/groups
