February 2006 Update

Desi & Rose Starr ~Denver Inner City Urban Missionaries~

February 2006 Update
~Ancient Paths Church~

Hasn’t it been a warm winter?! It finally snowed 2 in. here a few days ago, but it’s been warm and sunny most of the time. With 3 kids we’ll take it though! Ancient Paths Church is going well and we love meeting at Antioch Baptist. Pray that we’ll find a meeting place for Sunday mornings according to God’s plans.

Desi just got back Feb. 1st from a pastor’s conference that John Piper’s ministry put on in Minneapolis. He and Dwayne Dokes went for 3 days and were blessed, humbled, encouraged and strengthened. Rose was just blessed to have Desi back home! Desi enjoys running Sox Place (the drop-in shelter that we used to meet in on Sun. mornings) once a month as well as volunteering on Tuesdays. Desi is starting to mentor Raul, a 21yr old who has just gotten off heroin and is living on the streets with his pregnant girlfriend. Pray for their salvation. Desi, Dwayne, Bruce and Carrie meet Wednesday afternoons for staff meeting and prayer.

Rose had her ultrasound last Thursday and was surprised to find out we’re having a boy! All looks well and Rose is finally feeling good. She’s able to exercise, get out with the kids and have fun! Last month she taught children’s ministry, so she’s looking forward to going to church this month!

Our kids are doing well and thankfully healthy! Hope is halfway done with Kindergarten-very exciting! Owen is in the midst of potty training and Emma is learning how to throw tantrums. Needless to say, the house is full of noise! We are blessed. Thank you for your love, prayer and support- what a vital part you play in this adventure!

Love, the Starr Family starrjrfamily@yahoo.com
