The Elkhart County Miracle is an independent professional baseball team based in Elkhart, Indiana.
Originally set to be a charter member of the newly resurrected Northern League of Professional Baseball, the Miracle was set to play in 2014 following the construction of a stadium located at the former American Countryside Farmer's Market site in Elkhart.
As of mid-2014, stadium construction delays ended any chance of Elkhart fielding a team for that season. In October 2014, team president and founder Craig Wallin said that a 2015 start was also doubtful, but remained confident the stadium would be built and the Miracle would take the field.
Ultimately, the Northern League of Professional Baseball was never resurrected, meaning the Elkhart County Miracle never came to fruition.
On March 23, 2023 it was announced that Elkhart County Miracle would be becoming a reality as a part of the Northern League. The team will play at NorthWood Field of Dreams in Nappanee, IN until a stadium can be planned. The Miracles played their first game on May 31, 2023.
