UPDATE Week of December 5

 

That time of year!

The Week

it truly is a wonderful time of the year. the weather has gotten chilly - just the way Hef likes it! the lights are out - the festivities have begun - the cheer is real, y'all. I hope you feel it.

Round Table

Tim and Deborah Gardner hosted us on Monday night for a Round Table extraordinaire. Enchiladas were on the menu, as well as peppermint ice cream!


which picture do you like best for our Christmas card???

Leader Lunch

We had Leader Lunch with Lanie Ehlinger this week. As expected, it was the kind of lunch where you wanted to take notes - the Fellows did! as well as the directors!

Thank you Lanie! You are such a blessing.

Mistletoe

The Mistletoe Half and 5k were on Saturday morning! This is Lucy and Callie before the race

This is them after (can you tell the difference? did they even break a sweat???)

My friend Richard captured this pic of my son and I.

Santa was looking great!

USA!

From there it was off to watch the World Cup. 

The game was exciting. Not the result we were hoping for. But the food was outstanding - and so filling I was unable to eat for the rest of the day. Flatland Burgers for the win!

Old Salem

The Fellows were invited to take part in the annual hanging of the garlands around the square of Old Salem.

Super fun!

Christmas Parade

All that led to the Annual Christmas Parade downtown!

Sunday night, we took part in the Crossnore Christmas Tree Lighting

We've celebrated birthdays, enjoyed the beautiful weather, and more!  Happy Birthday Alana! Sweet Alana is so easy to celebrate! Dharma and Gracie, from the class of '24, threw Alana a party and planned an early morning hike for our girl that loves the great outdoors!

We had a wonderful end to the year celebrating all that this class and our year together.  As we close out another incredible year, be sure to check out an update on the Fellows class of 2023–2024 below. We’re excited to share what they’ve been doing since graduation and how they continue to make an impact in Winston-Salem and beyond. Happy Birthday, William! William’s birthday is actually in August, but summer birthdays are always a surprise celebration around here. Although, since we celebrated at the last Round Table, I’m not sure it was much of a surprise after all.  For the guy who can’t have peanuts and doesn’t like most chocolate, birthday cake ice cream saved the day!   Leader Lunch Our last Leader Lunch of the year was with Charlie Barham at Cassia Capital. While Charlie has an  impressive résumé, much of our conversation centered on his passion for Jesus and his leadership with Bible Stu...
