Rector: The Rev Fr. Kevin Cable Obl.OSB
Prior to moving to Eagle River, Fr Kevin was the Rector of Christchurch Jaffa, in Israel, where he served for several years as the Parish Priest. As a Messianic Jew, he ministered to peoples of all faiths and none in both Jaffa and the wider Tel Aviv area.
Fr Kevin was ordained in the United Kingdom by Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali in the Diocese of Rochester in 2008, after completion of his ordination training at Ripon College Cuddesdon in Oxford. Before his ministry as a priest, Fr Kevin was a police officer for 10 years, and had a variety of front line roles during that time. Fr Kevin is fluent in Modern Hebrew, and given his background and knowledge of Judaism as a Messianic Jew, he has a particular interest in 1st Century AD Judaism and Christianity.
He became a follower of Jesus after being challenged by the text of Isaiah 53, as a result of studying Messianic prophecies in the Hebrew Bible.
Fr Kevin is passionate about supporting Christians to develop and exercise their own ministries within church life, as inspired by the Holy Spirit to do so, and by discerning what gifts the Lord has given them. He enjoys working collaboratively with members of the Church family, so we can move forward in faith together, building up and supporting one another as members of the Kingdom of God.
In his spare time, Fr Kevin enjoys walking his dog Trixie, clay pigeon and pistol shooting, and experimenting in the kitchen - not always successfully!
Fr Kevin is married to Jen, who worked as a Nurse Practitioner in the United Kingdom. As a lifelong nurse she has a wide variety of experience of working with people of all ages and backgrounds, and has supported Fr Kevin throughout his parish ministry.
Jen acts as Fr Kevin’s secretary, and so please contact her at [email protected]
