UPDATE Week of September 11

These Fellows shine so bright

Labor Day Round Table

We invited Fellows Alums to join us for a special Labor Day Potluck Fellows Round Table


It was so fun to see 40 plus folks join us for a great night of laughter and story


The dogs were particularly happy


The festivities went well into the evening.

A tradition that is growing every year!

Leader Lunch

We had THE BEST time with John Bost in his cabin in Clemmons. John as usual brought his rare gift of storytelling. A particular highlight this year was his wife LaDonna. She dropped by then went on to steal the show! What a dynamic duo. Thank you John!

Salem tour

Ginny Tobiason, the Pastor at Home Moravian Church and one of the most well researched archivists of Salem history, gave us a great morning of sharing the stories behind the sights of Salem.

I need to record her and let everybody hear what she has to say. 



We stand on the prayers of many many people. We were called here to continue the chain for generations to come...

Palmer's Bday

Palmer's Bday was Saturday! The Fellows had a fun time taking him out to the Latino Festival and then back to the house for a game night!

Latino Festival

The Latino Festival is such a fiesta!


It sticks to you


Lia is a major celebrity there! It was so fun for me to be the husband of such a famous person.

Bible Study

I dropped by church on Sunday to see Marley Cait leading a Bible Study with gals.


Rope Swing

The Fellows decided to construct a rope swing at Crossnore!



It's in process. 

Julia Graduates!

Year one Fellow Julia Lovett Schaffner finally finished her MBA in Nonprofit Management. Now we just need to get these folks back here so she can take our job!


Raiders Win

Anna Rose led the team to a sudden death victory over rival West on Thursday.


Recruiting

Ned hit the airwaves to tell the Fellows story. Thanks WBFJ

September 2025

  September 2025 It’s hard to believe, but this year marks the tenth class of Winston-Salem Fellows! We can’t wait for you to meet them. The first month has already been full and exciting, and we can’t wait to share some highlights with you. Plus, if you read all the way to the end, you’ll get a special update on what the very first class of Winston-Salem Fellows is up to today! Video Loading    For the past year, we’ve been dreaming about creating a new video to share the Fellows’ stories and highlight the impact of this program. Thanks to Jed’s help, that dream is becoming a reality and we can’t wait to share the finished product with you! Annual Alumni Labor Day Cookout  We kicked off the year with our annual Alumni Labor Day Cookout and it may have been the best weather we’ve ever had for this event! On Day One, we were grateful to welcome the new class of Fellows into the wider Fellows community. Winston-Salem Fellows class of 2026 We’re so excited for you to me...

May 2026

The Winston-Salem Fellows class of 2025–2026 has officially graduated! 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...

October 2025

October 2025 The Carolina Classic Fair seems to usher in fall here in Winston-Salem. We are now in the full swing of our Fellow's schedule. 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! Round Table We've continued to be hosted by some incredible alumni and have done a terrible job of taking pictures. Above, Kevin was leading us in worship and Jed (dressed as a pirate) was capturing footage for our video. Thank you to all our hosts this month: Ava, Ellie, Eliza, and Hardy; Molly and Lucy; Drew, Kevin, and Jed; Steve and Christy!  Leader Lunch We are so honored and humbled by the men and women who take the time to invest in the Fellows year after year and share their stories. This month we had the privilege of being with Andrew Applegate, John Bost and ...
