February Update

Above is a picture from our Super Bowl party. There was even more fun had in the shortest month of the year, and here's a peak of what we were up to.

Round Table

We did not do a great job of taking pictures at Round Table this month. I guess we were having too good of a time enjoying the company. This month we were hosted by JT + Betsy Turner (pictures above and below), Fellows Alumni at the Hawthorne House, Davis + Hannah Mauney, and Chris + Virginia Perry.

What a joy to celebrate Molly Dwyer. Yes, we jokingly gave her a jar of mayonnaise for her birthday, but don't worry, we followed up with a delicious ice cream cake!

I believe this is Caleb acting like a dog on the dog bed, and Luke scratching his belly? Ha!

I guess it was a cream sweater day while we enjoyed having Round Table with the Hawthorne girls.

Don't let her face fool you, Elisabeth was enjoying RT at the Fellow's House with Davis Mauney.

There is always rich conversation around the Perry's table.

Valentine's Day

The Fellows enjoyed celebrating the day of love on several occasions. Miranda's Family Friends, the Nicholsons, hosted a Valentine's party that several Fellows participated in. Sydney led the charge on Galentine's, and of course, what says I love you like heart-shaped Chic-Fil-A biscuits?

I'm not sure how the guys got into the Galentine's party, but maybe they were security?

Exploring the City

Each year, the Fellows figure out what it means to make Winston their own. Their exploration and admiration of the city always encourages me search for the many hidden gems in our amazing community.

Local winery!

A little wind didn't hold these gals back from getting some delicious iced coffee!

Ashyn took Kevin around Waughtown where she's been invested in ministry this year.

Alumni

We got to celebrate AJ + Bailey who are getting married next month! They were both Fellows last year.

Spikeball!

After Bailey + AJ's shower, several of us ended up at West End Opera House to play darts. Some of us have some practicing to do!

Here is Ned showing off the next couple we get to celebrate: Hayes + Haley.

Leader Lunch

We started off the month having Leader Lunch with Andrew Applegate. Andrew is a long-time friend of the Fellows and always has great nuggets of wisdom to share.

Here we are with Daniel Johnson. Daniel shared some real practical tips with the Fellows. And a bonus, Daniel and his family, are family friends for Ismael.

Pastor Alan Wright from Reynolda Presbyterian spent two Wednesdays teaching us about blessing and shame. These were a bit more like class compared our typical Leader Lunch, but we thoroughly enjoyed getting to learn from him!

Enjoying the Outdoors

The cold temperatures can't keep these Fellows inside; although, they have taken full advantage of any glimpse of warmer weather.

And when it's too cold outside, why not sunbathe in my living room? Ha!

This month, the Fellows helped our neighbors at Crossnore spread mulch for their Miracle Heights Adventure Course. Stay tuned for when we get to do the course ourselves!

There was a lot of mulch.

Looking Ahead

This month we hope to finalize our decision for our mission trip in May. This will be the first time in a couple years that we've been able to do this; we're excited!

We have some birthdays to celebrate this month, a day of solitude planned, a great line-up of speakers, and so much more!
