Saturday Evening: A Night of Honor
The Pastoral Table culminates in an elegant gala celebration where we honor faithful ministry.
THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEKEND:
On Saturday evening, 12 Ministers of God will be publicly recognized and celebrated for their exceptional faithfulness, sacrifice, and impact in ministry.
These ministers have been carefully selected by our organization for:
  • Years of faithful service despite overwhelming challenges
  • Extraordinary sacrifice for their calling
  • Significant kingdom impact with limited resources
  • Perseverance when others would have quit
  • Exemplifying what it means to serve with integrity
Who will be honored?
The names of the 12 honored ministers will be revealed during the gala itself—creating a powerful moment of surprise and celebration.
If you are selected as one of the honored ministers, you may not know until Saturday evening. This preserves the element of honor and surprise.
Whether you're honored or honoring others, every attendee participates in this sacred moment of recognizing faithful service.
The gala includes:
Formal dinner
Worship and testimony
Public recognition ceremony
Awards presentation
Commissioning and blessing
Celebration of ministry faithfulness

Every minister attending The Pastoral Table is valued and seen. The 12 honored at the gala simply represent all faithful servants who persevere in their calling.
Is This For You?
The Pastoral Table is designed for ministers who:
1
Believe in Yahusha Hamaschiach (Jesus Christ) of Nazareth
2
Are actively serving in Bible-based ministry
3
Feel exhausted, isolated, or burned out from faithful service
4
Long for rest, renewal, and authentic community
5
Need a space to be ministered to instead of ministering
6
Are ready to invest $250 in their own restoration
If you're reading this thinking:
"I don't have time for this..."
"My church needs me..."
"Other people deserve this more..."
"I should be able to push through..."
That's exactly why you need to come.
You've given and given and given. For three days, let someone give to you.

WHO'S BEHIND THIS
Gabielle Lidji: A Minister's Heart for Ministers
As a gospel singer, minister, and co-founder of GL Ministries in St. Cloud, Minnesota, I've lived the ministry life you're living right now. I've stood on platforms leading worship while carrying burdens no one could see. I've co-built a ministry from the ground up experiencing the joys of answered prayers and the exhaustion of constant needs. I've served alongside pastors carrying impossible loads, wondering who's caring for the caregivers. I've seen faithful servants pour out year after year with no one pouring back into them.
One night in prayer, the Father spoke to my heart: "Who's caring for those who care for everyone else?" That question wouldn't leave me alone. The Pastoral Table is my answer, my act of obedience to a divine mandate. This is what it looks like when someone who has walked the ministry journey and is still walking it, creates space for others who need rest. This isn't a business venture. This is ministry serving ministry.
You've spent years serving His people. Now let someone who understands your journey serve you.
