Leaving My Amish World
Pregnant. Shunned. Heartbroken. Eirene knows God is calling her to leave so she can serve God. But is she willing to leave her family, her community, and everything she's ever known behind? This is Eirene's true story of how she left the Amish.
Life After Leaving My Amish World
In this book, you'll learn what a struggle it is to break away from the Amish. When Eirene Eicher leaves her Amish community with her five sons, the boys are shunned along with her and experience the pain of rejection at a very young age, causing them to be disenchanted with the entire Amish world.
"Eirene's writing will pull you in and keep you up all night reading. Leaving my Amish World was hard to put down!"
- Ashley Emma, USA Today Bestselling Amish Fiction Author
This book helped me change my perspective in life, especially now that I have 2 little kids and once in a while the road gets rocky. The author is such a testimony of God's love. When I started reading, I couldn't put it down and I saw myself crying at times, especially in those moments she chose to keep going and leaning in God when she felt she didn't have anything left at all. I have little background with the Amish world and this book helped me have a good understanding of them but most of all, a great testimony that with God, nothing is impossible. I'm just totally moved by this book... If you want to encourage someone, this book is such a great gift... Highly recommended!
