For the second time, we are excited to invite Deaf pastors and their wives to the Deaf Pastors' Gathering & Wives 2026. This unique event is designed to celebrate, encourage, and empower Deaf pastors and the women who support them. For those pastors without wives, we welcome others who are similarly involved in their ministry to attend. Together, we will recognize the vital role that families and ministry partners play in the work of God’s kingdom.

Event Highlights

  • Dinner & Entertainment: Provided at The City Forum at no cost to you, to honor the dedication and sacrifice of pastors and their wives in ministry.
  • Special Banquet: A heartfelt celebration to honor the dedication and sacrifice of pastors and their wives in ministry. A surprise speaker will be featured.

Why This Event?

We deeply recognize that pastors do not serve in isolation. They are supported by their wives and/or other ministry partners who share in the joys and burdens of serving God's people. Pastors’ wives, in particular, play a critical role in the ministry, often sacrificing time, energy, and personal comfort for the sake of the work they are called to. This event is an opportunity to thank and honor these unsung heroes for their steadfast commitment.

Who Should Attend?

This event is for:

  • Deaf Pastors who are active, retired, or inactive/former pastors of Deaf Churches.
  • Deaf Pastors and their wives who want to attend.
  • Evangelists who serve in a local Deaf Church/Ministry as a "pastor to the Deaf."

We invite you to come and experience a time of refreshing, connection, and appreciation for all that you do. We understand that unforeseen circumstances may sometimes prevent a pastor's wife from attending, so in such cases, Deaf pastors are welcome to bring their assistant pastors in her place, if available.

What’s Included?

The following will be included:

  • Lodging: Comfortable accommodations for the entire duration of the event.
    This will be at Holiday Inn • 5911 Valley Road • Trussville, AL 35173.
  • Meals: All meals will be provided, ensuring you are well-fed and energized throughout the gathering.
  • T-shirt: A commemorative event t-shirt for every attendee.
  • Registration: Your registration covers all aspects of the event, including workshops, meals, lodging, and the special banquet.
