Tragedy Strikes a Well Known Adoptive Family ~ Please PRAY for them!


Steven Curtis Chapman's 5-year-old daughter, Maria Sue Chapman, died Wednesday afternoon after being struck by an SUV driven by her teenage brother in the driveway of the family's Williamson County home. Police did not give the driver's name. The teen was driving a Toyota Land Cruiser down the driveway of the rural home at about 5:30 p.m. and several children were playing in the area.

Steven and his wife Mary Beth have long been supporters of international adoption, having brought three girls from China into their family. Maria was the youngest.
The couple is so active in the cause that they formed an organization, Shaohannah's Hope, to aid families wanting to adopt.

We pray that God be with this family as they try to deal with the loss of this precious life. We especially lift up her brother.
