SNOW MUCH FUN!
 |
| The Fellows brought the house down at Redeemers Got Talent Sunday night |
For those of you out of towners - last week Winston-Salem got 14.5 inches of snow. It had been 90 years since Winston had more than a foot of snow in a day. Needless to say, plans had to be adjusted. But there was plenty of fun to be had!
We canceled Round Table Monday Night.
 |
| The girls made a snow man |
 |
| The Ericksons built a snowman |
Things didn't get remotely normal until Wednesday. By then, most of us were getting a bit stir crazy.
Leader Lunch with Dr. Nathan Hatch was a welcome return to reality.
 |
| Dr. Hatch and the Fellows |
Dr. Hatch was peppered with questions ranging from leadership to diversity and inclusion to the price of higher education to millennials and the challenges they face but also the inspiration that they are.
Dr. Hatch did an outstanding job weaving in his story and experiences with his insights about life and vocation.
A hearty THANK YOU to Wake Forest for allowing us to meet with your president!
Afterward, we split up for a short time for guys and gals small groups. Because there was no school, we didn't have community service. In its place, we celebrated this guy:
 |
| The Andrew Miller |
It was Andrew's birthday. The gals got him a cake.
 |
| We only could find three candles though |
 |
| We let them eat cake |
As is our tradition, the Fellows went around and shared the things they loved about the birthday man.
We decided Andrew was like an artichoke because after you peel back the layers there is this awesome heart inside.
FRIDAY we had out last two classes of the year. Clay and Giorgio received resounding applause.
If you remember the weather was about as crappy as weather could be.
Fortunately, we had a warm place to go for our Fellows Christmas Party.
AKA My house! We had soup and sandwiches.
