Impact

By Jennifer Carey Reichle

Book Overview

On June 25, 2016, Jennifer Reichle and her husband, Philip, and their two sons Caleb, age 13, and Nathaniel, age 10, were hit head on by a car traveling 70 MPH when the driver crossed over into their lane. After the first impact, the other car hit a second time when it fishtailed, slamming into Jennifer, who was driving, and Caleb, sitting behind her. Both her neck and her right arm were broken. She called out for her two sons, and only one answered. In the pages of this book, told from a mother's heart, read how Jennifer and her family had to depend on God with critical injuries, surgeries, and separation from one another. With no family nearby, they had to trust God to meet every need. The trauma was very real, and each one of them experienced that God will never leave us nor forsake us. Jennifer Reichle grew up in New York and earned a B.A. in Philosophy from Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, NY and a Master of Divinity from the Alliance Theological Seminary in Nyack, NY. She has worked as a paralegal, college dorm director and director of residence life. She worked at the Hephzibah House ministry in New York City, and at the Call Center at John Hagee Ministries in San Antonio, Texas and ministered alongside her husband in churches in Connecticut leading small groups and doing discipleship ministry. In 2013, they moved to Texas, which ended up being a far bigger transition than they had imagined, and three months before the car accident, Jennifer's mother passed away. Like a palm tree, which takes a heavy beating in a storm, but in the end is still standing, Jennifer has seen the faithfulness of God to sustain her and her family through these traumatic events.
