A little late to write this, but two years ago today, Maria and Stevey Joy prayed and asked Jesus to come into their hearts.  I am so thankful that God gave me that time with Maria.  Maria, I can’t wait to play football with you in God’s BIG BIG House.  I miss you and I will love you always.

In honor of Maria, I’ll post a sneak peak of the Maria’s Big House Of Hope Shirt, and The Maria’s flower shirts.  The neat thing about these shirts…All the proceeds of these shirts will go to Maria’s Big House of Hope, named after Maria.  The story is even printed on the inside front of the shirt.  I wanted a way for her artwork to carry on, and for a cause.  All of these shirts plus much more, coming to the new Show Hope on line store!  The pictures on the on-line store will show more detail. Keep checking, it should be in the next week or so.

Thanks again for loving us through these tough days, a journey never wanted, but trying to steward well,

Hugs,

Mary Beth

Maria Sue Chapman, adopted and youngest daughter to Mary Beth and Steven Curtis Chapman, was killed Wednesday night in a tragic accident in the family driveway on Wednesday evening. She was LifeFlighted to Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital but for only reasons God can explain she went home to Him… not to Franklin as we all so desperately wanted.
Your prayers are needed for all in the Chapman family. This is a family who has so generously loved and given to so many. Just hours before this close knit family was celebrating the engagement of the oldest daughter Emily Chapman, and were just hours away from a graduation party marking Caleb Chapman’s completion of high school. Now, they are preparing to bury a child who blew out 5 candles on a birthday cake less than 10 days ago. These words are unthinkable to type.  And yet we trust in a God who was not surprised by this and because of  Jesus I am certain through faith in Him we will see Maria again.  - Jim Houser (Manager)

For those who never had the chance to meet this special little girl, we invite you to get a glimpse through this “goofy” blog video shot with her Daddy just two months ago.  It’s a wonderful recording to help us remember Maria. We miss you so badly already. We’ll see you soon Maria.
