| Caleb had a ball at the High School Youth Retreat this weekend |
I REALLY LOVE THESE GUYS!
We are easing into a new season of Fellows life with less program and more relationship. The Fellows used the time to spread the love around town and beyond. And I was able to meet with several of them one on one. A great week.
WEEKLY NEWS
MONDAY
Round Table at the Wilsons- Patricia cooked us up a beef stew for the ages. All I can say is WOW! Thank you guys. Sarah Wilkins led us in a discussion about community that was timely in how it brought us back to the basics and reminded us not to take what we have been given for granted. Thanks Sarah!
WEDNESDAY
Leader Lunch with Chuck Spong - Chuck is hands down one of the best men I know. He has his eyes on so many parts of the city we blitzed through our hour and a half with him in what felt like fifteen minutes. Thanks Chuck for imparting your passion and wisdom onto us! So thankful for you!

| Can you find Chuck amidst the Fellows? |

Later that afternoon, Bill McClain and Ron Pegram gave us a driving tour of East Winston. It left a heavy impact.

| We had time afterward to hang out with some of our favorite kiddos in Winston-Salem! |
THURSDAY
I met with Will Troxler for a top secret meeting. (see tomorrow...) We also interviewed Sarah Alexander to be a Fellow for next year. Many of you know Sarah - many of you know how much of a rock star she is...fingers crossed!!!
