OUR RETREAT LEADERS
 Terry and Leah Green, directors of Marriage GetAways at Glen Eyrie, have been married for over 46 years and are blessed with four children and 11 grandchildren. In October 2005, they moved to Colorado Springs, coming on board as full time Navigator staff serving at The Glen. They had been associate staff with the Navigators since 1995, laboring with the Military, Community and Church Discipleship ministries. Twenty years prior to coming to The Glen, they worked together in their insurance business in Alamogordo, New Mexico. Discipling others is their heartbeat while rejoicing in this new direction for the second half of their lives and marriage.

TESTIMONIALS
I felt encouraged (exhorted in the good sense) to have a regular/daily time of sharing what we are learning from God as a couple. We have done it sporadically but the example of Terry and Leah and their teaching regarding growing in this area has been a challenge for me and I know for my wife as well.
-Jose C., Texas
God has opened new pathways for Barb and I to walk together to get closer to Him. As we go deeper into Scripture and prayer, learning more about and from God, our love for each other grows.
-Phil A., Colorado
I was looking forward to a weekend away with my husband that focused on praying and being more spiritually connected. That happened. Most of our weekend was an opportunity to interact with God and each other. The teachers did a great job facilitating an environment where we could interact with God and each other. Getting to hike was a hoped for bonus!
-Wendy Y., Colorado
I have just returned from a 7-month deployment to Afghanistan. This weekend was part of my wife and my reintegration process to help our coming back together from my absence due to duty. This retreat provided the perfect opportunity for us to re-connect on so many positive levels. The Lord met us, walked with us, and enriched our time together. In a word, we have been blessed.
-Jeffrey J., Colorado
It was just the right speed for me. The meetings were helpful and clear with time to apply and meditate on the concepts. Besides, aren’t you supposed to spend time with your spouse at a couples conference?
-Rik Y., Colorado
