APC Happenings… Back in June we had Bump (Bridging Urban Missions Projects) out to do Sports Camp and VBS in our neighborhood park. We had a great turnout and met a lot of people from the hood. Following that was the EFCA National Conference in Denver. Desi missed a few days due to Levi’s birth, but made it to the last few days, thanks to Rose’s mom! The conference was encouraging and Desi enjoyed meeting new people and making connections. For the months of July and August we have moved from meeting at Antioch Baptist Church Sunday evenings, to meeting at Curtis Park in the mornings. We BBQ lunch following the time of worship and teaching. It’s been great to be outside and invite people to join us. Pray that we will be able to help lost people in our area come to know and follow Jesus and that the inner city of Denver will be transformed by the love of God lived out through the people of God. Pray for things coming up in August...We are hosting another VBS for 3 days at Carrie Schnur's(a staff member) house in hope's of reaching the families in her neighborhood, Tue-Thur...Aug. 8-10 from 12-3. We're having another gathering event Sat. Aug. 12th at her house as well.

Starr Family Happenings… As many of you know by now, our 4th child was born on June, 26th (which is why this newsletter took so long to get out!). Rose’s water broke at home and 2 hours later Levi arrived! He weighed in at 8lbs.13ozs. 19.75in. He’s growing quickly and we are all getting used to having a baby in the house! Thanks for all your prayers, emails and gifts. We are truly blessed. Owen turns 4 (we can't believe it!) August 11th and will celebrate with a Race Car Party. Rose will start mid September to home-school Hope (1st Grade).
