UPDATE Week of November 27

Hey all you connected to the Fellows - we are thankful for you!

Friendsgiving

The last Round Table before Thanksgiving has become our traditional evening to feast around the table together. 

We call it Friendsgiving.

This year's group really went all out!

Thankful Hands

The Fellows pulled out the construction paper and made turkey hands!


Gracie Paints Her Walls

Gracie has been planning to repaint her room all semester. And guess what, she did it! She's on her way at least!

Taking out the paint crew for ice cream - always smart. 

Thanksgivings Around the Country

This year we have no hometown Fellows. So we all spread out around the country for Thanksgiving time. Most went home, while others visited friends...and each other!

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...
