Watch tomorrow on the 700 Club - Maria's Big House of Hope Grand
Opening!
Tuesday, August 4th! The nationally syndicated television program, The 700 Club takes us to Louyang, China and the grand opening of
Maria's Big House of Hope.
The unique piece will feature Steven Curtis and Mary Beth Chapman, their family and friends for the much-anticipated opening, named in
honor of their daughter, Maria Sue. Funded by Show HOPE, this 60,000 square foot, six-story facility was created to care for special needs children
in the Henan province, one of the poorest areas of China.
The facility is named in loving memory of the Chapman's 5-year old daughter, Maria Sue Chunxi Chapman, whom they adopted from China in
2004 when she was just one year old. For more information on Show HOPE, click here.

yesterday for the first time i looked up steven curtis chapman on you tube.but i found something else, Maria. my heart was broken. and i don't know why, @ midnight last night the Lord had given me a song titled MARIA. this morning as i read my bible john 14 i remembered the song and as i was reading it (crying) i was also given the tune. i would like to give you the song
but i don't know how to get it to you.

Urgent help needed for adoptive parents in China. Please watch video on jayscruggs.livejournal.com. Heartbreaking story of a couple who is having to leave their new daughter in China. Is there anything you all can do? Do you know anyone there who can help?

Hi Mary Beth,
I'm not sure if you ever respond to your comments or if you even have time to read them all, BUT I was REALLY hoping to get a list of needs for MBHOH and an address that our family could send a care package to for the orphanage? We are in the process of adopting from China and I think it would be something special for our little boys to be part of as we wait, wait and wait for their little sister!
Thanks so much,
Stephanie

So thankful that Jim gave the link b/c I couldn't find it on my channel list. Just watched and I am constantly just wowed by you all. MBHOH is just amazing (thanks also for sharing all your stories and pictures from your journey).
I saw SCC on Saturday night in Ocean Grove and it was inspiring. Besides being so talented :) he is compassionate and humble and broken and hopeful and proud of his boys (and funny...such a great storyteller! Geoff was pretty funny, too!). My husband and I became Show Hope sponsors that night...I've been wanting to get involved and that was the perfect opportunity. I look forward to doing more...
Amy
PS - your sons are amazingly talented...Caleb and Will Franklin are truly a reflection of you and SCC.
