Reichel, Gustav Theodor

Reichel, Gustav Theodor a Moravian minister, was born December 15, 1808, at Berthelsdorf, Saxony. In 1852 he was made a presbyter, and labored for some years at Sarepta, when, in 1857, he was made a member of the executive board of the Unitas Fratrum. For nearly twenty-four years he devoted his entire energy to the service of his Church, and his rich experience was of great value to the executive board, whose president he died, January 28, 1882, at Herrnhut.
