A Family In Need

Oh my goodness! Such heartache...I have chosen to post this because I know SO many of you have been influenced and inspired by Steven Curtis Chapman and his faith centered life and his love for adoption. Please pray for this loving family in their hour of need!!!

I can't think of a faster, more efficient way to mobilize prayer than to post this here...



Please, please pray (right now!) for Steven Curtis Chapman and his family. Details are still in process, but it appears that one of his sons was pulling into their driveway this evening and did not see his sister (5 year old Maria..adopted from China) in front of him. She was struck by the car and killed.


I have met him, but do not know him personally, although his reputation as a Christ-centered man precedes him. I cannot imagine what they are going through right now.


Please pray specifically for peace tonight in the midst of the storm. Feel free to leave those prayers here in the comments section, as well as any scriptures you feel you have been led to pray for them. There is power in the living word of God...power that a dear family needs tonight.


Thank you-
Angie

Oh Anna... I am so terribly sad for them. I know too much. I know so much about the journey that they are now embarking on. My prayers are with them constantly.
