Awh..what cuties! How fun for them to be able to travel with you.
I (along with friends Abbi and Elli) got to meet you in Milwaukee if you remember.
Thank you so much for your music Caleb. It is really a blessing - I listen to each song as I'm going to bed to calm me down and each morning to get my day started off right. Keep writing songs for us to sing along with you :). God Bless!

Simply precious.

I just heard about what happened. I want you to know that by the time you read this, you will already have had several hundred prayers go up on your behalf. Know that God is close to the broken hearted. Listen carefully for Him to speak to you where you are. Keep a pen nearby to write the words that He gives you. Most of all, get lost in His word. In Christ, Hope

Oh, I am so sorry for your family right now...I can't imagine the pain. Please know that the prayers of millions will be with you. God is with you.

Praying for you--may God comfort you and hold you in the palm of His hand. That is where Maria is right now!

Hi,
When I woke up this morning my dad rushed into my room. I am the biggest fan of your family..and as I got up to someone whispering in my ear, I knew something happened. My dad told me the tragic news of what has just recently happened in your family. I am completely and totally sorry. I cant even imagine what you and your family are thinking right now. I just wanted to let you know that you are in many prayers, ecspecially mine. God Bless you.

Praying of your family!

I am so sorry for the loss of Maria. God knows best and he never does something and regrets it. Maria is rejoycing with the Lord in heaven right now, happier then she has ever been in all of her 5 years of living and someday soon, you will all be able to see her again. Love you guys! May God be with you through this hard time.

The shockwave hit our Canadian airways this afternoon with the tragic news. Please rest in the prayers of millions who are praying and are grieving with you over this ACCIDENT!
Why do bad things happen to good people, we don't know? Only God knows.
You are all loved.

I am praying for you and your family. I can not begin to imagine what you are going through, but very thankful that your obvious FAITH in our FATHER ABOVE WILL GET YOU THROUGH THIS!!!!
With love and our prayers,
Kristie and family

Although I love and listen to Steven Curtis Chapman, I didn't realize your family had three adopted daughters until I heard about your loss and found this Website. We don't understand God's plan for us, but He had a plan for Maria's life. This tradedy has brought me to here, and, in turn, has me seriously wanting a little Maria in my life. I don't have any children and would love to adopt an orphan child. Thanks for your blogs and ministry!
My prayers and thoughts are with you.

To the Chapman Family,
I immediately said a prayer for your family at 4 am this morning when I heard of your loss of Maria on the news. After viewing the videos on your blog I could see that she was full of joy and she brought that joy into your family. I know that she will be sadly missed however as you said in one of your March blog videos- If any one of you are suffering let him pray.
In Christ,
TD

Maria seemed like a special little girl with a big cozy heart. You all have the prayers of SO many with you and you all are very blessed to have such a wonderful and strong family. We are thinking about you day and night. May God bless the time to come and be with all of you. I admire your family for everything you all do. Take care and thank you for inspiring me to become a child of God.
:)
