I just heard tonight on the local news that one of Steven and Mary Beth Chapman's son's accidentally ran over one of their adopted daughters tonight at their home. She was pronounced dead at the hospital. As you may know they have adopted three beautiful daughters from China and have a wonderful organization called Shaohannah's Hope which provides grants for adoptive families and also supports orphans in a wonderful way. I was blessed to receive a $3,000 grant from them this year. I'm sure more information will follow tomorrow, but I can not imagine their intense grief and sadness over such loss. Also remember to pray for his son who will be dealing with intense guilt over this accident. May the peace of God which passes all understanding be theirs now...
Update: Maria was the daughter who was killed. She was the most recent daughter adopted in 2004 and I think was the youngest. The accident just happened around 5pm tonight. You can see the story on his website here.
