Chad and Courtney Phelps of Indianapolis, Indiana, and their unborn daughter passed from Earth to heaven on July 27, 2013, in a tragic bus accident while returning from youth camp in Michigan. They left a legacy of loving the Lord, each other, baby Chase, and the youth of Colonial Hills Baptist Church. Charles Richard Phelps, III (Chad) was born on May 3, 1988. Courtney Ann (Popow) Phelps was born on August 9, 1989. The passion of this young couple was seeking to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ by life or by death. Chad and Courtney’s greatest earthly joy was their beloved son, Chase. While the Phelps were passionate about music and sports, their first priority was to enrich the lives of others by bringing them closer to Jesus. Chad’s focus on the Word of God opened doors for him to begin a teaching and preaching ministry while he was very young. Courtney loved to inspire children and youth to use music to bring honor to God. Both of them were well-traveled, well-read, musically trained, and dedicated to fulfilling God’s calling in their lives. From their youth, they knew the assurance of salvation and the calling of God to full-time Christian service. Through their ministry, they have impacted a multitude of souls and laid up for themselves eternal treasures in heaven. In their short lives, they lived out the verse that they selected for their wedding program. “Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.” (1 Thessalonians 5:24).
