The last full month of Fellows is over. Yep, that’s really sad, and I’m just going to reminisce over the sweet memories from the last 8 months! I have been surrounded by some pretty incredible people who have impacted my life and have been very supportive through it all! I am so incredibly grateful to everyone who has been a part of making this program so special! Here are just a few of my favorite pictures from this year!

Fellows 4 Ever
I love them so much and am so thankful for the time that I have gotten to spend with each of them. These 14 people will always be close to my heart, and I am so proud of everything that we have learned, achieved, and done together. Heading into the last week of Fellows, I look back to the first week and 1. cringe at how awkward we were and 2. remember my excitement of knowing that in a few short months we would be such good friends!
6th Grade Lil Lambs
They are so silly, sassy, and fun! I have loved getting to lead these girls this year and see the Lord work through their lives. I am so thankful for Emily and Evy for being in it with me! Screaming goat out!
Little, Big, and GBig
Beth was my mentor this year and Meg was my buddy and Beth’s mentee last year! Ugh I love our little family that we have created! Beth has been such a consistent friend and giver of wise counsel. I love our walks and coffee dates to talk about life. You are the most affirming and caring person I know and I appreciate all the advice and prayers that you have showered me in! Meg is so sweet and kind! She always has a smile on her face and is so joyful whenever I see her (except for when basketball is on… she’s LOCKED IN)! I have loved our morning walks and getting to talk through life together. You have shown me how to live out trusting in the Lord and endurance as you have been fundraising! So proud of you girl!
CITY OF OAKS 😍
I lived in Raleigh 2 years ago for college and honestly left Raleigh swearing I would never go back… but the Lord is pretty funny about the places He calls me to! Great friends, fun adventures, and not being in college has been so good for me and my view of Raleigh!! Example above: we went to see THE NUT one night and it was so silly and amazing! Thanks to everyone who has changed my mind about Raleigh and made it my favorite (for now)!
“Frat Fellows”
This name was given to us at the TFI Conference by another fellows program and has now become our group chat name. Well its Fraternity Fellows because were not that crazy… but as the name suggests, we get pretty wild with banagrams at breweries on Monday nights, randomly breaking out into synchronized dances at parties, throwing funerals for cars, and having day time parties at the Miedma’s!
Baby Bells
Yeah this was my peak!
Birthday picnic celebrations
I felt so seen and known by people who I had only known for 3 weeks! Thanks to everyone for making my birthday so special this past year and creating spaces in other moments that are for lifting up and celebrating people!!
