Roy & Madison Butler

Roy and Madison Butler joined The Refuge in early 2023 after a long journey with the effects of living a life not led by God. Madison grew up attending church, while Roy did not find his faith until 2023. Since then, their lives have improved leaps and bounds.

The two married in July of 2021 and live in the small town of Whitewright. They spend their days working full-time and raising five young kids, who you may see running around The Refuge from time to time.

Roy and Madison were called to leadership roles at the beginning of 2024 and now serve as part of the leadership team for the youth of The Refuge. After many prayers, self doubts, and hesitation, they accepted the challenge. The experience has been nothing but the best for the two of them since taking the leap.

They quickly realized they could be a light to children who may be struggling with the same difficult circumstances they were faced with. It didn’t take the two long to realize they have found their passion. The couple hopes to continue to lead the youth at The Refuge with full hearts and an open mind while looking forward to what their futures in leadership and ministry have in store.
