27-year-old Jordan Reichenberger disappeared on Halloween night at 2016 in Austin, writes The Daily Mail.

The family was worried at first, fearing that something had happened to the man. When they were finally able to contact their son, he told them that he had left the city with some of the older members of his Church, Wells, and now lives in East Texas. They went there for him, but Jordan stated that he did not think that it was time for him to return.

He also wrote messages to his friends and family with the text: “Do not be afraid for me, my friend. I decided to follow Jesus and leave everything; I apologize for any pain or grief that I have caused you. ”

Reichenberger was in a building owned by Wells Church for five days before his brother, father, and several friends went there to take him home.

Hearing the horror stories of other families trying to get their children back, Jordan’s brother Yang said that they approached the situation very carefully. They came there with friendship and love, not showing aggression and not putting forth demands to supporters of the cult, so that they could not tell Jordan that his family was evil and therefore should be avoided.

In the end, after several hours of heated discussions with church elders, Reichenberger was allowed to leave.

But when he returned home, his mother Kim noticed that he was not himself, and then his eyes began to roll, the man became ill.

Medical tests have found sleeping pills and muscle relaxants in his blood.

Reichenberger admits that he felt “like a fog” in church. According to him, he never took drugs or tranquilizers voluntarily, but all his food and drinks for five days in the complex were provided by supporters of the cult.

“Disgusting. It's a real shame that people can do such things in the name of God,” Reichenberger said.

He and his family contacted the police about the results of a drug test in his blood.

In addition, the police tracked the movement of the guy on the day of his disappearance. Then he met with a man in a cape in the center of Austin, talked to him a little, after which they left together.

Although Reichenberger was allowed to leave the Wells Church complex, another family in Austin is still waiting to be reunited with his daughter.

Andy’s daughter and Patty Grove, Katherine, joined the Wells Church almost six years ago; parents have not had any news of her for over a year. They fear that something terrible could happen to her.

“We have information from law enforcement that she tried to escape from there numerous times,” Andy Grove said.

Her mother believes that Catherine was also under the influence of drugs when she was first brought to church.

Wells Church declined to comment on both of these situations.
