CONTEMPORARY Christian music legend and advocate for adoption Steven
Curtis Chapman comes back to Manila for free concerts on June 29 at
7 p.m. and June 30 at 6 p.m. at the Cathedral of Praise on Taft
Avenue.
Chapman, a Grammy Award-winner and unmatched GMA
Music Award (Dove Awards) recipient creates global awareness on the
need for adoption of the less privileged children through his music.
His platinum and gold albums under EMI-CMG/Praise Inc. includes:
Speechless, Heaven in the Real World, Declaration, Greatest Hits,
Music of Christmas, Signs of Life, The Great Adventure, More to This
Life, For the Sake of the Call and All About Love.
His composition “I Will Be Here” has
overtaken Chapman’s popularity in the local scene, becoming even
larger than the artist himself. The well-received song has become a
standard in the Philippine music scene—covered countless of times
by various popular artists.
Chapman and his family have committed themselves
to helping orphans worldwide. They have established Shaohannah’s
Hope, an organization dedicated to overcome financial difficulties
of prospective adoptive parents through providing financial grants.
The organization so far has been able to provide 500 grants helping
to make possible the placement of 500 orphans in families.
Seats will be on a first-come, first-serve
basis. Doors will be open two hours before the concert.
