A Mother’s Journey of Love, Loss & Life Beyond

A Mother's Journey is the powerful true story that is sure to offer undeniable hope to all. As she soaks in one of the last days of a perfect vacation in Costa Rica, Scalise has no idea that she is about to face an incomprehensible tragedy that will claim the life of her twelve-year-old daughter, Brooke. Hidden discoveries and simultaneous events too parallel to be deemed coincidence reveal that Brooke's life had a greater purpose and her soul was preparing for the journey home. As she begins to unravel Brooke's messages, somewhere between conviction and proof, Jennifer finds an unshakable faith in eternal life and peace, knowing that Brooke remains by her side with a love unabridged by death.

Jennifer L. Scalise is a devoted, single mother who resides in St. Charles, Missouri, with her two children. After the accidental death of her twelve-year-old daughter, Brooke, Jennifer brought to life the Brooke Scalise Foundation, a nonprofit organization that represents Brooke's life passions by enriching the lives of junior high school youth by granting funds for them to attend church camp. Alongside her efforts in building awareness about the dangers of traveling to third world countries, Scalise is a member of Concerned Families for ATV Safety and continues to share her strength with others who have lost a loved one.
