Beginning August 16th, The Roys will take a detour from their schedule and head to Columbia, South America, as part of a missionary trip with Compassion International. As the reigning ICM Duo of the Year, The Roys understand what being Inspirational to others is all about. Being part of a Compassion International trip is very exciting," says Elaine Roy. "This organization has been in existence for 58 years, and they have done so many wonderful things around the world. To lend our name to such a great cause is a blessing." The Christian child advocacy ministry is something that Lee Roy will be experiencing first hand, "I'm very humbled to visit the kids. It's important to us that we use the gifts God has given us to help others," adds Lee Roy. "We feel that bringing light to this problem of poverty which is everywhere is something we are called to do!" "Compassion International is truly a life-changing organization. I have witnessed first-hand the amazing work they do around the world. Compassion wants to work more closely with the country music community and there is no better fit than The Roys. Lee and Elaine have huge hearts and will bring joy to a lot of kids through their work with Compassion International," says Jason Higgins, Executive Director of the Christian Country Music Association.
