MARIA SUE CHAPMAN, DAUGHTER OF STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN, DIES IN ACCIDENT AT FAMILY HOME
NASHVILLE, TN...5/21/08... At approximately 5pm on the afternoon of Wednesday May 21st, Maria Sue Chapman, 5 years old and the youngest daughter to Steven and Mary Beth Chapman was struck in the driveway of the Chapman home in Franklin, TN. Maria was rushed to Vanderbilt Childrens Hospital in Nashville, transported by LifeFlight, but died of her injuries there. Maria is one of the close knit family’s six children and one of their three adopted daughters.
More than five years ago, Chapman and his wife MaryBeth founded The Shaohannah’s Hope Ministry after bringing their first adopted daughter, Shaohannah, home from China. The ministry’s goal is to help families reduce the financial barrier of adoption, and has provided grants to over 1700 families wishing to adopt orphans from around the world. Chapman is a five-time GRAMMY ® winner and 54-time Dove Award winning artist who has sold over 10 million albums and garnered 44 No. 1 singles.
it doesn't say this, but one of her older brothers was driving the car (i'm not in any way whatsoever blaming him).
so, we really need to be in prayer for their family, and also for the brother. i cannot even imagine how they feel. we need to lift them up in prayer, and be praying that their family will be strengthened by this tragedy, and that they will cling to Jesus, and that they will use this horrible tragedy to lead others to Christ. we also need to be praying for the brother. i cannot even imagine what he's going through right now. be praying that God will just draw him to Himself and that he can be a testimony before the world of God's faithfulness and love.
anyways, i just wanted to share that with y'all and ask for prayer for them. so please be praying!
dear Lord, i lift up the chapman family to You now. i pray that You would strengthen their family and just draw them to Yourself during this difficult time. please bless them now and help them to know that You're in control, even though we have questions and don't know why something like this would happen, help them know that You have a plan that's so much bigger than us. please just hold them close to Yourself and make Yourself real to them at this time. Lord, i pray especially for maria's brother. please help him to realize that it's not his fault. show him that You have a huge plan for his life, and just hold him tightly in Your arms. draw him close to You and his family through this tragedy and help him to see how You're using him. make him stronger through this, and help him to be a testimony of Your love, faithfulness and forgiveness through this. thank you so much for always hearing us, and just be close to the chapmans now. amen.You Should Play the Accordion |
![]() You are eccentric, funky, wacky... definitely one of a kind. People have trouble putting you in any one particular category. You definitely have your own thing going on. You are a born entertainer. No wonder you'd be perfect as an one man (or one woman) band. Your musical influences likely cross all genres - and blend together in a very unusual way. While you are definitely offbeat, you also enjoy tradition and influences from the past. It's just your style to take an old fashioned instrument like the accordion and make it uniquely yours. Your dominant personality characteristic: your total inhibition Your secondary personality characteristic: your interest in obscure activities and subjects |
What Tori Means |
![]() You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. |
