<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It has six months since we have last blogged…time flies when you are having fun! We are doing well and plugging along here in NYC. It has been cold for SO LONG up here! We had several snowfalls here over the winter, the first one being in October...but I think everyone down south received more snow than we did. I love snow! We were able to go sledding with friends for one of the snowfalls. The only part that stinks about snow is you have to get out and walk in it. The world doesn’t stop when it snows here…you layer up and keep going. It’s a way of life. However, we’re ready for some warmer weather!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A quick recap of the past few months:</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">November: we traveled home for Thanksgiving and got to spend some time with our Belmont Heights Church family. Kevin led worship and we both spoke about our experiences so far. We were able to spend some time with the young adults after church, and it was a blast. We also spent time with our families.</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">December: Randy & Cathy (Kristi’s parents) came and spent the holidays with us. Kevin had a VERY hectic work schedule, but we were all able to enjoy the Christmas festivities together. (Times Square, Rockefeller Center, Macy’s, etc.)</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">January: we went and spent time with our former pastor & family in Charlotte, NC. We were able to speak at his new church about our ministry in NYC.<span> </span>We had a blast getting out of the city, eating Chick-fil-a, and spending time with the WHOLE Glandon Family. We also caught a Charlotte Bobcats game. It was our first professional NBA game!</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">February: Kevin began a new position with The Bowery Mission. His work schedule isn’t crazy anymore and he’s home at a decent hour!!!<span> </span>We also welcomed a new addition to the Cabe Family…Macy Cabe, our 2-year-old calico cat!</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">March: Mission teams have arrived! We were able to work in our community with teams from Texas and Alabama.<span> </span>They helped us put up fliers in store windows, pick up trash on the streets, and went to the park to engage teenagers, all for the purpose of sharing the gospel!<span> </span></span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">And now it’s April.<span> </span>And here is what is currently going on in our lives & in the life of Cornerstone Church…</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The church is doing well. We’re averaging around 30-35 each week in worship. Our small groups have been going strong since January and we will close out our spring semester in a few weeks. Those who are attending small group seem to be enjoying them and growing spiritually. Kevin has had a few opportunities to preach over the last few weeks as well.</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We wanted to share an awesome God story that happened less than 2 weeks ago…</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Our church is responsible for keeping an area of our local park clean, and the Parks Dept. has a given us a closet in the women’s bathroom to store our things.<span> </span>We were asked to go down to the park to check our closet because the lock had been broken off and it needed to be replaced. Once we arrived, two young ladies asked to go in the bathroom. Kristi took FOREVER to come out. It was because she was talking to the ladies about why we were putting a lock on the door.<span> </span>She was telling them about our church and inviting them to come to join us for church and for small group.<span> </span>Well, one of the young ladies took her up on her offer. We found out the young woman lived several neighborhoods away and paid a lot of money for a car service just to get to small group. Several days later, she came to our Sunday morning worship service. Kristi took her out to lunch afterwards. The following week we invited her to come with us on our church retreat in New Jersey.</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This past Sunday during our retreat, at the end of our service as always, we were given a chance to respond to the sermon.<span> </span>During the response time, the young lady came to us for prayer and told us she wanted to make sure she had a relationship with Christ.<span> </span>After speaking with her for a few minutes, she prayed to receive Christ…then walked over to take her first communion.<span> </span>I’m so proud of this young lady but I’m incredibly proud of my wife for being an example.<span> </span>Kristi shared with me that in her prayer life she has begun praying that God would allow us to see people come to salvation because of our efforts.<span> </span>I love it when God answers a prayer like that!<span> </span></span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Over the next few weeks we’ll be doing some traveling. Kevin will be heading to NC in late May for a wedding, we’ll also be taking a short yet MUCH NEEDED trip out of the city for a long weekend and rest. We have mission teams coming in for the summer, a trip to Dallas, TX for the <i>Send North America Conference,</i> and a lot more. </span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We would LOVE to hear from you. I know many of you will read this and move on. Please send us a note on the blog, email, or social media and say hello. We’d love to know how you guys are doing and how we can be praying for you and cheering you on!

We're really busy.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">6. Holy Cow we live in NYC!!!!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">The longer version:</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">We know...we get it...it's been a long time since we blogged. Before moving to NYC I used to read Freddy and Susan Wyatt's Blog about life in NYC. I used to get so bummed because it took them awhile to blog. It was one of the few blogs I ever found about life here and well...it's been far to long. So, I'll make no promises about updating weekly but we'll try to keep you informed. You can always email and call us!!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">Life here has become so hectic here lately that I'm actually writing this blog on the Subway. The "R" train in case you are wondering (nobody cares which train). Actually...the majority was written on the train and was finished several days ago. I'm finishing the last part on my day off because Hurricane Sandy is almost here and I've got the time to finish this! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">The month of October has been a fun one for us. At the beginning of the month Kristi's friends from seminary came to visit. They went all over the city. I was glad Kristi had that time to connect with her friends. (They wore her out!!) A few days later, we welcomed Mark and Rachel Anderson here from Knoxville. We showed them around the city which we enjoyed. It's ALWAYS nice to see a familiar face! We also welcomed Cory & Sami Lethgo here. We had a great time with them here in the city!! Can't wait for them to come back.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">The ministry here has been going well also. Kristi began leading the women through a doctrine study. These women are eating it up. They are so hungry to learn and grow. Kristi really is doing a great job with this and has put a ton of work into it.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">The men's group has kicked off as well. I wish I could say I've been right in there but truth is I've been working 10-12 hour days and have missed them so far. I'll get there. I miss connecting with the guys. I have been meeting with 2 men in our church. We have been going through Basic Christian Doctrine and they seem to enjoy it. They ask a lot of questions which has been good. One thing I've really noticed is you have to be really intentional to reach people in the North. Down south I took a lot of that for granted. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">God continues to bless us despite our short-comings. It truly is amazing to see all we have accomplished here in the short 7 months. He continues to provide for us. He does this through people like you giving and praying. Please continue to remember us in your prayers.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">We'll be coming home for Thanksgiving. We'll be at Belmont Heights Baptist Church Sunday morning after Thanksgiving in Knoxville.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"> </span><br />

We have had several mission teams come in this summer and more to come. The biggest event we have had was City Uprising. We had 6 churches involved with about 60 volunteers. These teams worked in our local park to make the area nicer. New Yorkers do not have a lot of green space so they love their parks, however, this park is large and only has a few workers. During the day the teams worked in the park and at night we had a worship service. The pinnacle of this event was an outdoor picnic with free cotton candy, popcorn, snow cones, face painting, live music, and inflatables. We had at least 300 people attend this event. Praise the Lord!!! </div>

July 4th was another great day for our church. Our local senator puts on an outdoor picnic in the park with live entertainment and activities for kids. Cornerstone got in on the action, we handed out around 250 fans with our logo because it was HOT. We also gave away Starbucks gift cards every 30 mins and had a face painting booth. It was another huge hit! We connected with many of our neighbors. </div>

The next night was incredible! We had an outdoor baptism at Coney Island. Jeremy and Joanna, a couple who has been attending our church for awhile now, came to Cornerstone because they saw a flyer in a store window. They were both believers, but neither had been baptized. Both have been a tremendous help with the church and they are a really great family, we are glad they saw the flier! The baptism was a powerful moment as we had a good turnout plus we turned some heads at Coney Island!</div>

This past Sunday was another huge day in the life of our church. We had our first ever membership Sunday! There were 10 people who came forward and signed our church covenant. Cornerstone Church at Bay Ridge started with 7 people and currently runs 30+ people. </div>

Kristi and I are doing fantastic. God continues to use us despite our weaknesses. Our small group is doing well and continues to grow. Kristi has spent a great amount of time working with the mission teams that are here this summer. A huge prayer for us was answered when the Lord opened the door for me to land a job with the Bowery Mission. I'm working in the corporate headquarters as a donor service coordinator. </div>

Kevin and I have been living in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn for a little over 3 months now & it has been an awesome experience! The Lord has blessed us with a great apartment, new friends and an awesome church family! We are very humbled that He would allow us this opportunity to serve Him in NYC. There are times when I am walking down the street or riding on the subway that I think, I can't believe I am living in one of the greatest cities in the world in order to serve the God of the universe! </div>

Over the past few days I have walked around taking pictures of our new community, Bay Ridge. I did this so our family and friends could see the area we live and the places we go. We hope you enjoy looking at our pictures! Please continue to pray for us as we continue to build relationships and share the Gospel!</div>

Wow, we are slacking on the blog! Life has been crazy here lately that we've simply not had that much time. The last few weeks of April I was in Real Estate Class. For two weeks, from 9-4 M-F, I was in class learning as much as I could about how to pass the state test. Once completing the test I've been working with a company that does mostly rentals. While I started off with much promise I'm sad to say that it wasn't that great of an experience. I felt like I was working seriously long hours and going pretty much everywhere and nothing to show from it. It was pretty frustrating and after a few weeks it was clear that this wasn't going to pay the bills. So, i've been searching for another position. It's been really discouraging on the job front. I'd say Kristi and I have sent out 200+ resumes with no response. </div>

Cornerstone Church is going well. We're plugged in and serving like crazy. Its been neat to see how God is growing and using our church. We just finished one of the greatest weeks in our church. It was cool how it happened. One small group went out together on a Thursday night for fellowship, a few guys got together and played pool on Friday, Saturday our church helped serve in our park and then went to eat pizza later that night, church on Sunday, then another group of guys got together again on Tuesday for pool. It's been exciting to see our group get together outside of a Sunday gathering. Pretty neat stuff there!!! We'll be having quite a few mission teams rolling through this summer. We're going to be slammed, but I think it's going to be great for the life of our church. We hosted Clear Creek Baptist Bible College from Kentucky this past Saturday. We put up flyers in businesses along 3rd & 5th Avenue. Because of that work we had 3 new faces today in worship! </div>

Also, Kristi and I passed a great milestone for our relationship. We celebrated our one year anniversary on May 21st! They say to survive in the city you have to get out of the city and that's exactly what we did. Since we now call the Northeast home we wanted to go somewhere outside of the city to the north. Some friends from church recommend Newport, RI. Honestly, at first thought…I wasn't too happy about Newport or Rhode Island for that matter but I'm so thankful we went. What a great place! It was absolutely beautiful. Newport is home to tons of mansions. There was one street that literally had 12+ mansions within walking distance. We toured two of them. We went to the Breakers and Rosecliffs. Newport made me think of a smaller swanky Charleston, SC. Its a great place for a relaxing trip. I could see us visiting there again.</div>

Church family.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>This is a book tour with Matt Chandler and Shane and Shane leading worship. Matt Chandler is the pastor of Village Church in Dallas Texas. Matt just released the book Explicit Gospel and is traveling to various cities on the East Coast this week. The first stop was in NYC last night at Apostle’s Church.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>I highly recommend going and checking out this event. If you are a Christian this event is for you. If you are trying to introduce somebody to the Gospel and/or the church this event is for you. If you are exploring this thing called Christianity this is for you. <o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>We have the book and I’m really looking forward to digging into it. From what I could understand, this book is about the Gospel and breaking it down to the simplest form or showing you how best to articulate the Gospel to someone else. His text was from Colossians 1. The overall theme is that God rescued us. Bottom line, we, in and of ourselves, are born into a sin state, are separated from God and we cannot make things right with God on our own.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>It was because of the work of Christ that we can be reconciled to God.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The biggest theme in the Bible that is often overlooked is Grace. The problem is that many of us hear the Gospel but yet what we “hear” is a list of do’s and don’t and what ultimately happens is one of two things: 1. We make a “decision” for Christ because we ultimately don’t want to go to hell. 2. We reject the list of do’s and don’t and live for ourselves. <span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We are in need of God to rescue us from the dominion of darkness. In reality, we’re ALL in NEED of God to rescue us. We are messed up people in need of Grace. Jesus’ work on the Cross was the ultimate act of Grace. This idea in Colossians chapter one is that God has rescued you and I from darkness and placed us into light in which we have redemption. We were fallen, sinful, separated from God, but He intervened and now we have hope. That’s it.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p>We were told that ministry in the Northeast would be difficult. And…we’re seeing that it is. We were told that this place is hard to share the Gospel. Truth is, ministry anywhere is difficult.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal">Paul…on the road to Damascus wasn’t a seeker. </b>Let’s not mistake laziness for Going and Sharing. God calls and God equips.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>We have been rescued…let’s live that and let’s share that story. After all, that’s why we’re here. Why are you here?</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p> <!--EndFragment-->Kevin

The park overlooks a backdrop of tall buildings and skyscrapers in Jersey City, Manhattan and Staten Island. Further in the distance one can see Queens and the Bronx.<br /><br />“It’s really an amazing place to stand and see it all,” writes Kevin on his blog that documents the couple’s recent move to the city.<br /><br />It’s a much different view for the Southerners. Both have North Carolina ties and were living in Knoxville, Tenn., a few weeks ago before uprooting to the Big Apple. The couple packed up their possessions, sold their car, quit their jobs and moved from a “comfortable life” in Tennessee to Brooklyn.<br /><br />They now live in a one-room apartment in Bay Ridge, a community of 70,000 people packed within two square miles. As Mission Service Corps missionaries with the North American Mission Board (NAMB) the couple is working alongside Cornerstone Church in Bay Ridge – the only Baptist church in their neighborhood – to help lead locals to Christ. The church, which launched Sept. 11, 2011, is part of NAMB’s Send North America effort to start new churches in cities across the country.<br /><br />The Baptist State Convention of North Carolina also is involved in several of these Send North America partnerships that include New York, Toronto and Boston.<br /><br />“It was simply about being obedient [to God],” said Kevin, who spent most of his life growing up in Canton, N.C.<br /><br />“We had great jobs. We were comfortable. We were secure.”<br /><br />Kevin has served on staff in the past at Biltmore Baptist Church in Arden and also helped start Pinnacle Church in Canton. He attended Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest. Kristi also attended there and graduated. But the couple didn’t meet until after Kevin moved to Knoxville in 2008. There, he served as student minister at Belmont Heights Baptist Church. The Cabes married in May of 2011.<br /> <table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="8" style="width: 315px; "><tbody><tr><td bgcolor="#efefef"><img alt="03-26-12cabe.jpg" src="http://www.brnow.org/getattachment/5277fcbb-5cf4-4d9b-a928-246c3b128c14/03-26-12cabe.jpg;;.aspx;.html;.jpg" title="03-26-12cabe.jpg" style="border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-width: initial; border-color: initial; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; width: 300px; height: 201px; " /><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 12px; "><em>Kevin and Kristi Cabe, as Mission Service Corps missionaries with the North American Mission Board, is helping with Cornerstone Church.

While on a six-hour layover in Newark, N.J., as he and a mission team returned from an overseas trip to Poland, the team set out to explore the city that never sleeps.<br /><br />“It was just the enormity … the high rises, knowing that there are millions of people here,” said Kevin, noting there are more than 170 languages represented in the city.<br /><br />“And knowing that in the South we have churches on every corner. But up north that is not the case.”<br /><br />Though Kevin concedes there are some “church buildings” in Bay Ridge, there are few congregations that identify themselves as “evangelical” or those who put their sole trust in Jesus Christ for salvation.<br /><br />“Our goal [is] to help a church as well as lead people to Christ,” he said.<br /><br />The move has required some adjustment.<br /><br />Without a vehicle, the Cabes must walk or take the subway to get where they need to go in the city. The people “talk fast” and the cost of living is much higher. As Mission Service Corps missionaries the Cabes are endorsed by NAMB, but they are responsible for raising their own support.<br /><br />“We were fortunate to raise enough support that will keep us here for several months,” Kevin said.<br /><br />“But we are going to need jobs … which is good because it will allow us to meet more people.”<br /><br />Right now the couple has applications out and are actively looking for employment.<br /><br />The Cabes are working with Nathan Tubbs, a bi-vocational pastor of Cornerstone Church and a 7th-grade science teacher. The church meets in a hotel with about 25 people who attend each week.<br /><br />As an associate pastor, Kevin leads worship, works with youth and leads a small group. Kristi’s main role with the church involves leading a women’s ministry.<br /><br />Both have helped Tubbs coordinate volunteer teams and lead groups to hand out flyers and information about Cornerstone. Some of the flyers can be found hanging in stores and in other places around the neighborhood.<br /><br />“We were afraid that people in the local businesses would be like ‘we don’t want this,’ but they were really friendly and really receptive,” Kristi said.<br /><br />“Being from the South you always hear that people from up north are rude, and I haven’t experienced that since I’ve been here.”<br /><br />While riding a subway, Tubbs shared on his cell phone how the Cabes are an answer to four years of prayer.<br /><br />“Having another couple come in and help out, [Cornerstone’s] ministry has been tripled,” Tubbs said.<br />“We’re meeting people who have never been in a church before, and no one in their family has been in a church before.”<br /><br />Tubbs described the work in Brooklyn as being similar to ministry among an “unreached people group” overseas.<br /><br />According to one study, 83 percent of New York City residents affiliate with some form of organized religion, but only 3 percent claim to trust Christ alone for salvation. “We’re about 97 percent lost,” Tubbs said. “We’re right on the verge of what the International Mission Board would call a people group that’s two percent lost … unreached.”<br /><br />Overall, the work is going to take time and persistence. “The relationships here are incredibly slow,” Tubbs said. “It takes days, months, years to have the opportunity to share with someone.”<br /><br />“That’s why a couple like Kevin and Kristi Cabe are so important to our ministry because they come and they stay … and are going to see the long-term benefits of doing that.”<br /><br />For more information on how your church can become involved in similar partnerships through the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina contact Michael Sowers, senior consultant with Great Commission Partnerships at (800) 395-5102, ext. 5654, or <a href="mailto:msowers@ncbaptist.org?subject=Biblical%20Recorder:%20Michael%20Sowers" style="text-decoration: none; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; color: rgb(0, 126, 152); "><em><strong>msowers@ncbaptist.org</strong></em></a>.

We've been in NYC for 26 days now. The first two weeks we were here we tried to get acclimated to the area. The last two weeks we've worked with four mission teams. We've had college students from the University of Georgia, University of Kentucky, Alabama University, Auburn University, Alabama State, University of Montevallo, and University of Hawaii. The groups have spent time working in Shore Road Park and picking up trash along 3rd and 5th avenues in Bay Ridge. The people here are noticing! With out fail, people stop us and ask us why we're doing what we're doing. Its been great to hear these college students tell the locals, "Hey, we're from Hawaii (or any of these schools) and we're here to serve in your community. We're working with Cornerstone Church." Anyone who talks to these students receives a card with our church information on it. The people in the community are amazed that people come from all over to literally pick up trash and sweep sidewalks.

We're seeing visitors come through our church doors and we're meeting new people. I had the chance to attend a worship conference in Brooklyn. It was a small intimate group but it was a great time to reflect as well. God has called us to serve people and to lead people. What a sweet time that was and I made some connections with some people in the city. I'm thankful I had the opportunity to go.</p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">We're really enjoying getting to know the people in our church. We've attended small groups and its neat to hear their stories. Some are native to Brooklyn and some have come from other places. None the less, the stories are incredible how God has brought people into this community. We have a couple that randomly showed up to church b/c of a crazy woman. This couple was walking the street w/ their family. A lady was literally acting crazy on the street and they stopped to see what was going on. One looked to the business beside them and saw a flyer for the church…the next week they showed up, and they haven't left! They are a sweet family that serves faithfully in our church. Another couple noticed the people serving in the park and decided to come to church…they've not left either! </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">It's been exciting here the last little bit. On March 15th, I was sitting at my computer on Facebook about ready to call it a night. A friend jumped on their and said, "Nice article in the USA TODAY! I'm praying for your ministry." I asked, "Well thanks for praying but what are you talking about?" A few weeks prior, thanks to the Baptist and Reflector, they ran an article about Kristi and I going to NYC. The Tennessean (Nashville's newspaper) contacted us about doing an interview. The reporter must have been a contributor to the USA TODAY because the same article was sent to the USA TODAY. You can view the article here. <span style="font: 12.0px Arial; color: #666666">http://www.usatoday.com/news/religion/story/2012-03-13/baptist-mormon-missionaries/53553360/1</span></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px">Last night, we had a meet and greet with our church family.

This past weekend we had a couple from Alabama and a retired businessman from another part of Alabama visit NYC to check out Cornerstone Church. At church, near the end of the service a visiting couple showed up. They looked like they were unsure of where to go. I got up and greeted them and told them we were finishing up our service and invited them to have a seat. The gentleman was in a suit and his friend was dressed very nice as well. I'm wondering to myself, how did they hear about our service? I'm glad they found it but i'm thinking what's their story. Once the service was over, the businessman from Alabama stood up and said, "can i say something?" He then said, "I want to thank "Joe" (Name changed for sensitive reasons) for being here today." He was referring to the couple that came in at the end of the service. w "Joe" was my cab driver from the airport to the hotel. I shared with "Joe" about this church and invited him here today. "Joe" and I began to talk about the Bible and he had a lot of questions. He shared with me that he has began studying the Bible. "Joe" is from Africa and he is a Muslim." Can I tell you that the air in our church was sucked out and literally in awe of how God had worked. The look on everyones face was priceless! "Joe" left with some great books about Christianity and a new Bible. I don't think I'll forget that story for a long time.</p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">God is at work in NYC and we would love for you to be a part. You can be a part by getting involved here. You can be involved by supporting Kristi and I prayerfully. You can be involved by supporting Kristi and I financially through the North American Mission Board. Regardless, just get involved!

It's because we have been SO busy. We moved into our apartment on March 1, and so far, we love it here! The weather when we first arrived was pretty cold. The last few days it's been pretty warm here. We're hoping we missed the winter here. We're one block from anything we need...restaurants, hardware store, pharmacy, grocery store, etc. We're also two blocks away from the subway that can get us anywhere in the city. We're walking everywhere. We miss our cars! </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" ><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;" >We have a mission team here from Athens, GA this week.

We take it back and park it near our house. Sunday morning, we leave at 7:45 and go to the storage area and pick up our equipment and then to the hotel where we have the services. We set up, have a worship service, tear down, load it up, unload it at the storage place, put gas in the UHaul and then drop it off. Then have a car service to take us back to our house. Its a time consuming process but that's how we pull off Sundays.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">The rest of the week…we posted flyers of the church in local businesses and restaurants. Kristi and I felt like the people were very receptive to us posting these. We even had a muslim woman allow us to post the sign in her window! We went on a prayer walking tour of Brooklyn which was nuts! Literally, we walked through an American/Italian area (where we live), Arabic community, Mexican community, Chinese community, Hasidic Jewish, and Russian community. All very close to each other. It's eye opening the ethnic diversity we are seeing. There are 100-200 college students from Alabama, Georgia, and Kentucky in the city for passportNYC12. So, we had 30-40 people helping in the park yesterday cleaning up. We've not had time to breathe really but its going well.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">Prayer Request:</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">Please pray we find jobs that will allow us to stay here.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">Pray that God would send us prayer partners</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">Pray the God would send us financial partners</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">Pray for Cornerstone Church</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">Pray for the people of Bay Ridge</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;">* If you are interested in partnering with us in any way….please email us.

font: 12.0px Helvetica">We packed up everything last Tuesday and began our trek up on Wednesday. We left early that morning. We traveled the outskirts of DC, and went through Baltimore and Philadelphia. We made a few wrong turns but we ended up staying the night in Staten Island. Thursday morning, we headed into Brooklyn. We picked up our keys and headed to our new apartment. We really like our new place. We're one block from anything we need and two blocks from the subway! We're really liking this community. We also made a trip to IKEA in Brooklyn. We really like that place too!</p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Friday night, the North American Mission Board hosted a NY/NJ Church Planter's Spouse Getaway. So, we headed to New Jersey around 3:00 on Friday. We hoped the R train to the World Trade Center Site and hoped on the Path Train to Jersey City. We had a great time there and got to meet some other church planters and hear from Vice President of NAMB, Aaron Coe. He really challenged us and encouraged us. Kristi and I enjoyed our time there. </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Saturday, with Kristi's parents here, we ventured into the city and saw some sights. We went to Macy's, Times Square, Reece's, Hershey's, and Rockefeller Center. We had pizza from Nino's Pizza in Bay Ridge. That was probably the best pizza i've ever had. </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Sunday, we experienced Cornerstone Church. This is the church we'll be working with. We were so excited to be there. (Kevin has been sick since we've been here) Nathan did a great job with the sermon and C.David knocked it out with worship. We're so excited about working with this church and seeing all that God will do in and through us in Bay Ridge. Well, thats enough for now. We're heading to a small group soon. Pictures will follow of our apartment and Bay Ridge. </p>Kevin Cabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07926803162817191393noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-721254582902529729.post-85167857501438082582012-02-22T06:00:00.004-08:002012-02-22T06:11:31.419-08:00Baptist & Reflector<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Several weeks ago Lonnie Wilkey of the Baptist & Reflector came to visit Kristi and I at our church.

We're going through the program called Mission Service Corps. We will be self-funded. For individuals wishing to give money, you can do so through NAMB.

Specifically, we’re wanting to move to Bay Ridge since that’s the area we will be ministering in. We’re actually 10 days from leaving Knoxville and 11 days from moving into the city. Our plan is to leave Knoxville on Sunday the 26th and stay outside the city and then move in early Monday.<br /><br />We’ve been working with a realtor for about 2-3 weeks. We’ve tried to get one place for it to fall through and we put an application in on another one a week ago, only to be turned down yesterday. So, we’re asking that you pray that God would provide a place for us to live in Bay Ridge. We know ultimately that God has the place picked out. We are 11 days away with no place to live at this point. So, prayer warriors…start praying with us!<br /><br />Love you guys!<br />*Also, become a follower of our blog and you can receive email updates once we post information.Kevin Cabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07926803162817191393noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-721254582902529729.post-13289374062300018632012-02-12T18:50:00.001-08:002012-02-13T06:58:41.227-08:00Open Letter to Belmont Heights Baptist Church<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Open Letter to Belmont Heights Baptist Church:</p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Josh asked me what I wanted to share with the congregation. As you can imagine this is a very emotional time for me. I wanted to share so much but you wouldn't have made out very much. SO, here is what I want to say to you.</p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">You are a special place. From the moment I snuck into your service several years ago, and unknown, you greeted me with love. I had many people reach out to me on my first visit. I wanted to say "I'm your next youth pastor"…but I couldn't. Even from my first visit, I noticed how loving this church was and is today. I'm so thankful that you welcomed me in. You have allowed me to do ministry. You didn't put any restrictions on me. You allowed me to serve. </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">I'll carry some incredible memories with me. For instance, Beef Jerky runs on the way to Iowa, calling timeout in Church League softball on second base, taking the students to the Lost Sea to spend the night in a cave (DUMB IDEA), Hearts on Fire trips, Florida trip, Poland (twice), bowling, SnowBird, Camp Ba Yo Ca, Fellowships, prayer service, Fusion, Hangin' at the Lethgos…Arnie's and Barry's, leading worship in Poland, BHBC, and Iowa and so many more memories. </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Through Belmont, i met my wife!!! I came here to serve and left married! Its been great to serve along side a great pastor. I believe Belmont is heading in the right direction. </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Students: you are being left in some very capable hands. These leaders love you guys. They want to see you succeed just like Kristi and I do. Put the Lord first, and you WILL succeed. Love these youth workers because they are serving because they care about you. We may not be there every week like you/we are used to but we're still very much apart of Belmont. You are our home church. Your successes are our successes and vice versa. We want to hear from you. Please call, text, email, or whatever so we can be in touch! </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Its been an honor to serve this church. We look forward to sharing with you what God is doing in our lives and in New York City and we look forward to seeing you…hopefully soon. </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><br /></p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica">Kevin</p>Kevin Cabehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07926803162817191393noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-721254582902529729.post-9712064562832384332012-01-22T14:40:00.000-08:002012-01-22T14:42:15.136-08:00God Provides<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; ">Thursday night in small group we were talking about God and how He provides. I can tell you over and over that He provides or you can look at your own life and see that. The conversation went to the issue of tithing. For young Christians or for young adults (18-30ish) the issue of tithing is one that can be difficult. I’ve experienced the pain of tithing…or lack their of. When it comes down to it, we have to make the decision to tithe. We have to get out of the mindset that it is about us. I think for most of us…it comes down to priorities. The Bible is clear on this issue.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; "><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0.5in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><sup><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; ">6</span></sup><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; "> “I the LORD do not change.

As you know from reading this blog, Kristi and I are going to the most expensive city in the world (NYC) with no jobs in place. I’d be lying if I said that doesn’t cross my mind. In fact, I’m constantly reminded of this fact. The fact that the enemy is telling me how I’m going to fail. We know that God has called us. I recently read Perry Noble’s blog and he said, “if it’s God’s will, it’s His bill”. I believe this this! As I’m wondering how I’m going to take care of things, the Lord laid it on somebody’s heart to give and give generously. That’s what Christ calls us to do…Give and do so generously! After all…that’s exactly what He did for us. He gave and gave generously. You can NEVER out give God. I’d encourage you to bless somebody today.

We began to look at different cities around the United States. Our only criteria was to get outside of the Bible Belt. Please hear us, the Gospel is needed right here in the South but the statistics tell us that those that do not know about it, hear it, see it, experience it outside of the Bible Belt is staggering. So, we began to pray about where we could go.</p> <p style="text-align: left;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Verdana; min-height: 19px; "><br /></p> <p style="text-align: left;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Verdana; ">At the same time we were having this conversation, the North American Mission Board began to roll out a new method of reaching North America…church plants. Not just church plants specifically but targeting 25 major cities in the US and Canada. The first target city to receive national attention was: New York City. We also began a dialogue with Steve Allen. Steve is the church planting catalyst for the North American Mission Board serving New York City. His job is to help people start churches.</p> <p style="text-align: left;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Verdana; min-height: 19px; "><br /></p> <p style="text-align: left;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Verdana; ">In October of this year, we made the trip up to New York City to see the area and see if God in fact was leading us to New York City. While we were there Steve took us on a driving tour of Jersey City and Hoboken in New Jersey; Staten Island, Lower Manhattan, and many parts of Brooklyn. We fell in love with it and the area. Ultimately we learned of the great need there. More than 8 million people call this place home. Literally, the world is coming to New York City. There are over 170 languages spoken there. There are more Jewish people in New York City than in Jerusalem and New York City has the largest Chinese population outside of China! </p> <p style="text-align: left;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Verdana; min-height: 19px; "><br /></p> <p style="text-align: left;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Verdana; ">We are currently in the process and hope to be accepted by the board of trustees of the North American Mission Board to be missionaries to New York City in February!

style="font-size:16.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:Georgia;color:windowtext; text-decoration:none;text-underline:none">Wow, what a year! 2011 was an incredible year for both of us. We started the year as a newly engaged couple. Kristi was hard at work with the planning. (I was able to coast through this process!) Kristi continued with her photography by taking family photos, weddings, parties. She also worked with Resolve Ministries this year helping counsel young teenage girls. This year brought a lot of ministry opportunities for both of us. Through our church we both taught in varying degrees through Bible Fellowship, small groups, and student ministry. Kevin also led worship not only at our church but was very involved in the band LIFE WIDE OPEN. The band played in front of thousands of people this year. A highlight in early 2011 was playing at Ridgecrest Conference Center. That was a moment we will never forget.</span></a></span><span style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:Georgia; mso-bidi-font-family:Georgia"><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none; text-autospace:none"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 21px; ">The best part of 2011 happened on May 21st! That was the day that Kristi and I were married! What a sweet day that was! The day was mostly a blur. It happened so FAST!! We were able to catch our breath in Cancun Mexico for our Honeymoon! If you've never been.....GO! What a beautiful place! We're still learning each other day-by-day. It's a process that will continue till we die.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none; text-autospace:none"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 21px; ">In July, Kevin went on a mission trip with our church to Iowa. I unfortunately had to stay back and work. I really wanted to be there with him and our church but the Lord needed me here. God did some incredible things on that trip which we'll talk about in another post.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none; text-autospace:none"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 21px; ">September, we had the privilege of taking a long weekend trip to North Myrtle Beach, SC. Actually, it's Little River, SC. Kristi's parents bought a place there and so we spent the holiday weekend (Labor Day) with them.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none; text-autospace:none"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 21px; ">In October, for Kristi's birthday, we headed on a long weekend trip to NEW YORK CITY!!!!! We had such a blast getting to explore this city. NYC is HUGE. It's literally like another world. In one minute it's like your in America and the next minute you are in China, and then Russia. Its amazing how the World is literally coming to New York City.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none; text-autospace:none"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 21px; ">We closed out 2011 celebrating our first Christmas as husband and wife. We had a blast spending time with both sets of family. It's a shame it couldn't have lasted longer! We love our family, we love our church, and we love serving the Lord together. 2012 will be a major change for us. MAJOR CHANGE..and that's an understatement. More on that soon...Here's some pictures to leave you with that happened during 2011.
