UPDATE October 30

ROUND TABLE

We had a home base Round Table on Monday to have a little "family huddle." It ended up being one of the sweetest times of the year.

CRISIS CONTROL

We switched things up on Wednesday and spent the afternoon at Crisis Control Ministries where we sorted cans from the Carolina Classic Fair and then participated in a Living On The Edge seminar.

Thanks Crisis for a Great Afternoon!

DAY APART

On Friday, we headed to Yadkinville for a Day Apart at the Shore Property of Love Out Loud. Shannon Rainey did a fabulous job leading us. the weather couldn't have been better. And a meaningful time was had by all.

RUF at WAKE

Several Fellows and Fellows Programs went to RUF on Wednesday night to talk to Wake undergrads about joining the Fellows Program next year.

Pray for fruit!

AIA at CHAPEL HILL

Ned then traveled to Chapel Hill for Wednesday night and Thursday Day through the Evening for a Recruiting Trip. Thanks to Brianne, he was able to speak to the AIA group. What a great gang!

Thursday, he was able to have several follow up meetings. Then, Thursday evening, there was a Fellows Night at the Battle House where several programs hosted dinner for prospective students.

Biking for ZOE

Over the weekend there were cycle-cross activities and a 5k in honor of Zoe Clay who recently passed away. She was such a joy bringer. It was an honor to race in her honor and represent Flatland - the reason Ned knew her.

FALL BEAUTY

It speaks for itself

BOWLING NIGHT

The Fellows have learned to make their own fun.

April 2025

April 2025 Update It's our last full month with the Fellows from the class of 2024-2025, and it was a full one! We celebrated as several Fellows received job offers to stay in Winston Salem. A couple are still looking, but we are crossing our fingers that all nine will remain here next year. Bryn and Dean Got Married! Well, they actually tied the knot back in February but we forgot to mention them in the last update! Bryn and Dean actually met walking down the aisle together for AJ and Bailey's wedding a few years ago. Fortunately for us, they are still in Winston Salem. We had a wonderful time celebrating them and enjoying a reunion of sorts with folks from several Fellows classes. Ecuador Video! The very talented Jed put together a short video to capture part of our time in Ecuador. We couldn't possibly show everything, but please check it out! Leader Lunches We had another stellar lineup this month! A fun fact: every speaker was either a current or former employers...

Ecuador: Days 5 and 6

Ecuador: Days 5 and 6 Day 5! Started off the day by taking our friends from El Reypin to the park for a field trip. After a delightful drive, we hopped off the bus and circled up in the sunshine to play some games. There were smiles all around as we laughed, ran, jumped, sang, and danced with our buddies! This was truly one of our favorite days playing with our new friends. Kevin was the star in one of our games. He was asked to test his athletic abilities by running around with a bucket tied to his back while being chased by 10 children. He was no match, and every single one of them threw a ball in the bucket. Next time, Kevin! We finished off our park day with a yummy hotdog topped with mayo, onions, tomatoes, and potato chips. Afterwards, we journeyed to the center of the Earth. That's right! The Equator. Zero degrees latitude didn't hold anything on this peculiar group of individuals. The Fellows not only survived but looked fly doing it. And that is really all th...

May 2025

May 2025 Above, you'll see how it started versus how it ended. May has been a bittersweet month as we officially wrapped up the ninth class of Winston-Salem Fellows. What a year it has been—full of growth, laughter, challenges, and transformation. Truly, an incredible year worth celebrating! World Relief Race Earlier this spring, the Fellows were deeply impacted by our time with Jon Musser as we learned about the incredible work World Relief is doing here in the Triad. So when they heard that River Oaks Community Church was hosting a 5K to benefit World Relief, they were all in. And apparently, they brought their A-game—Steve and Ellie both placed in their divisions! Leader Lunches Our final two Leader Lunches were spent with two remarkable individuals. First, we heard from Charlie Barham of Cassia Capital, followed by a meaningful conversation with Amy Carlan, Associate Pastor at First Presbyterian. Classes We wrapped up the year with two of our longest classes. First, Gospel-Cen...
