Retreat Leaders
Terry & Leah Green
CLOSER is led by Terry and Leah Green. Their marriage of 58 years has flourished into a reliable source for wisdom, development and renewal for hundreds of marriages. They served the Navigator ministry as associate staff for 10 years in NM while they worked together as insurance agents in their own business. They came on full time staff with the Navigators in 2006, moving to Colorado Springs to direct the Marriage GetAway retreats for the next 15 years.
They began the CLOSER Prayer Retreat for married couples in 2010 and added that to the schedule along with Marriage GetAway until 2021 when Mike and Becky McNamee became directors of Marriage GetAway. It is their joy to partner with Mike and Becky as both couples invest in marriages in all ages and stages of life.
