Healing & Helping
the Heart Ministries
COURAGE and EnCOURAGE
If you experience same-sex attractions, the Catholic Church wants you to know you are loved, valued, and a part of the Church. You are a child of God and redeemed by the blood of Christ and the peace and mercy of God are here to help you.
Courage offers its participants a confidential place to gather with others who experience same-sex attractions and who are committed to helping one another to live chaste lives marked by prayer, fellowship and mutual support.

If you are a friend or family member, especially parents, of individuals who experience same sex attraction EnCourage offers help and support. In some cases these friends or family members maybe members of Courage, but in other cases the individual may have drifted away from the Church, and family and friends may struggle with how to stay faithful to the Church's teaching and still be supportive of their loved ones. |
EnCourage consists of Catholics seeking guidance in understanding and supporting their loved ones who experience same-sex attractions.
