UPDATE Week of October 23


Oh what a beautiful morning!

WELCOME TO THE WORLD!

We are celebrating Ada Grace McConnon born this past Saturday at 9:44pm, weighing 7lbs.

Christian and Sydney are doing well!
The Fellows keeps on growing. What a blessing!


WELCOME TO THE GANG!

Speaking of adding to our numbers. Philip Maghen wisely asked Caroline Filston to marry him. She said yes!!!




HALEY WAS BORN!


We had the fun of wishing Haley a happy birthday. Festivities lasted all week. With a cinnamon bun on Monday. Wednesday, bring the actual day. And a sunrise birthday hike on Saturday!

No complaints here. She is worth it!



Happy Birthday Haley!

ROUND TABLE

The Snow's dog was very happy to host Round Table on Monday


The table was long and rectangular. 


The sunset was all right. 

A great night was had by all. The highlight was a time of sharing from our hosts. What a great reminder that the Lord is Lord through the good times and the hard times. 

Thank you!

LEADER LUNCH

We had the very best Leader Lunch speaker on Wednesday (a little biased, I know). Dr. Lia Erickson. 

Her story is so inspiring!

Thank you!


CLASSES

We wrapped up our two fall seminars with Katy Benoit and Joe Moore on Friday. We should tape them!



Thank you Katy and Joe for your faithfulness and service. We love you!

SUNRISE HIKE

Most of the Fellows woke up at 4:30am and headed up the hills to Stone Mountain State Park to watch the sunrise. 


It was super windy as evidenced by Jacob's scarf. 








It was a beautiful beautiful morning


We had breakfast at Cracker Barrel on the way home. 

YUM!


Jacob had worked up quite an appetite. 


FALL FUN



(You may have noticed not a lot of pictures of Stephanie this week. Sadly, she was under the weather! Praying for a swift recovery!)

OTHER EVENTS

The folks behind the He Gets Us campaign were in town. Pretty cool stuff. 


The 128th annual Wachovia Historical Society meeting took place on Sunday.

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!

Thanks to Jed’s help, that dream is becoming a reality and we can’t wait to share the finished product with you!

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.

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...
