UPDATE Week of December 18


A Merry Christmas Holiday Season To You All

Christmas Party, Fellows Style

What a week!

It all started with a round Table Christmas Party at the Mabry's home. 

As per tradition, Hef leads us in a series of reindeer games which cannot be explained only experienced. 





Yes, that's a lobster


A Special Leader Lunch

As the heading reads, we had a special Leader Lunch. To end the year, we invited four alums to speak to the Fellows. It's the first time we ever had former Fellows speak as Leader Lunch speakers. 

It will not be our last!

Thank you Wyatt Hill, Molly Todd, Caroline Filston, and Christian McConnon!


Bible Study

We had our final Bible study of the year indoors as it was a bit nippy outside.

Class

We ended our course on Racial Reconciliation and Beloved Community with a little yarn experience. 

Room Makeover

Reena Fernando has blessed the Fellows with a beautiful room makeover. 



Her small group came on Wednesday to put on the final touches. We can't thank you enough!!!

Christmas for the City

Words cannot describe the blessing Christmas for the City is. This year, the Fellows served throughout the building. An added treat was witnessing Fellows alums take leadership roles as well. 







Family Friend

Ian visited his Family Friends one last time before the break...

Special Visitors

What a treat to have Reese and Julia (year one Fellows) swing through town on their way to a wedding!



Life Skills

The Fellows had a little life skills lesson this week. Marley Cait got to put in new spark plugs in her car!

Recruiting

We are awaiting to hear back from a few folks who are weighing the decision to become Fellows here next year. Please pray for yesses! And pray for more applications!!!

The holidays is a time when lots of college students are back home. We would be happy to talk with them over the break. Please put us in contact (336) 413-4918

The Fellows would really appreciate a year end gift!

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...
