Steven Curtis Chapman's youngest daughter (5 year old Maria - their adopted daughter from China) was killed in an accident last night. It's such a sad situation and their family needs a lot of prayer! She was hit by an SUV that her brother, Will, was backing into their driveway...he didn't see her. Maria turned 5 only 10 days ago, and the family just celebrated the news that their eldest daughter, Emily, had gotten engaged. They were also only hours away from hosting a graduation party for their son Caleb when it happened. These were happy days in the Chapman family - until last night. Please be in prayer for them!!!
Here is the whole family...Maria is sitting on her Daddy's lap in this photo.
Here's a link to a website dedicated to her... http://chapmanchannel.typepad.com/inmemoryofmaria/

I heard about this on Sunday...So sad.
But she is with the Lord and that is awesome!!
The song "I Will Be Here" was our wedding song. I love you Chapman family and I know we can all get through this.
