INTRODUCING ANN MCGEE GREEN
Like so many in the SNA a family connection drew me into this wonderful community. My husband, Barry, has a younger brother with profound physical and mental challenges. Barry and I were dating and were attending a week long discipleship conference in Lynchburg called Eagle Eyrie. When the conference ended, Barry asked if I wanted to stay the weekend for another conference that he was leading the music for—a Retreat for Adults and Youth with Special Needs. I loved how he respected and ministered to this community. With tears in his eyes, he told me that the parents and chaperones were his heroes. Less than a year later we were married and have attended this conference every year of our 35 year marriage (including two virtual ones where he led music and we led a dance online) Our children now attend as leaders with us. They have gone every year of their lives. Unfortunately the retreat is almost always the same weekend as Stetson, so that is why I am almost never at our fall meeting.
