UPDATE Week of October 16

 

We got the chance to tell the Fellows story at the Lewisville-Clemmons Chamber Non-Profit Showcase this week.

TIME MANAGEMENT AT ROUND TABLE

We had a delightful dinner at the Gardners home on Monday. Ned did his best to not spill sand on their beautiful carpet as he performed the Big Rock demonstration.

LEADER LUNCH AT WINSTON STARTS

Steve Lineberger was a most excellent Leader Lunch speaker. What an exemplar of the integration of faith and work he is.

FAMILY AND MENTOR DESSERT

The Rainey's hosted a dessert for this year's Family Friends and Mentors. We got to know each other, shared stories, answered questions, and prayed. A great night.

NOAH LOVES ANIMALS!

Who knew?


BREAKFAST AT THE FOLLOWS HOUSE

The Fellows cooked themselves a breakfast feast on Saturday morning!

SPEAKING AT NCS

On Thursday, Ned woke up early to speak at NCS East which is held at Forsyth Seafood. He returned the favor for Guy since Guy pinch hit for the Fellows a few weeks ago at our leader lunch!


DISC GOLFIN

The Fellows went on a disc golf excursion on Saturday afternoon. Not sure who had the lowest score.



CLARA LOVES CHARADES

Any guesses?

June 2025

  June brought a change of pace as our formal Fellows programming came to a close. But that hasn’t stopped the Fellows from enjoying some summer fun! They've been transitioning into fuller work schedules, searching for housing for the year ahead, and even managed to sneak away for a beach trip. Recruitment Above is a photo of the Madisons from this past year. One fun fact about Madison Avery (left) is that she joined the Fellows program just two weeks before it started—right in the middle of her sister’s wedding celebrations! Even with such a quick turnaround, Madison jumped in wholeheartedly and has had a truly transformative year. She fully embraced the experience and is now stepping into a full-time role with her Fellows employer. We’re still filling spots for our 2025–2026 class. So, if you know a recent grad or young adult who’s still figuring out their next step, send them our way —Madison is proof that great things can start even at the last minute. Oklahoma! We have a star...

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...

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...
