Yesterday, Thursday January 7th, our application for a grant was delivered to Show Hope. Please pray with us that we will be selected to receive one of the grants from Show Hope. The grants can be as high as $3000. This would almost get us to our final payment, which is due when we accept the referral of our baby and help us bring her home.
Who is Show Hope?
Show Hope is an organization originally founded by Steven Curtis Chapman and his wife, Mary Beth out of their desire to see more children find their way into forever families. Though many families they talked to were willing to adopt, the financial costs to adoption were simply too high. Originally named after the Chapman’s first adopted daughter, Shaohannah Hope Chapman, Shaohannah’s Hope has grown far beyond the initial vision of helping a few orphans find homes. In 2009, after changing the name to Show Hope, this organization has seen an amazing explosion in growth. From a six-story caring facility in China, equipped to provide surgeries and medical care to special needs orphans, to multiplying the effects of the adoption grant program by assisting churches in setting up their own adoption funds, Show Hope continues to expand in it’s remarkable worldwide impact. Please check out their website at http://www.showhope.org/ and look at what they are doing today.
