Courage UK
Courage UK is an Evangelical Christian ministry for the gay and lesbian community, based in Guildford, Surrey, England. It was originally founded as an ex-gay organisation that sought to change gay people to straight, but subsequently rejected the idea that sexual orientation could or should be changed and now exists as a pro-gay evangelical Christian ministry.
The membership of Courage UK in 2006 has been stated to be about 150 men.〔News article in ''WorldWide Religious News'', April 6, 2001, at ().〕
==History==
Courage UK was founded in February 1988 by Jeremy Marks.〔News posting on the website of Evangelicals Concerned Western Region, July 26, 2004, at ().〕 The group was originally affiliated with the ex-gay movement and was once a member of Exodus International,〔News article in ''The Advocate'', March 13, 2001, at ().〕 but as of 2002, the organisation abandoned those views and its affiliation with the ex-gay movement.〔http://www.courage.org.uk/articles/article.asp?id=5〕 At the time of its founding, the group's efforts were considered progressive, because it reached out to gay people rather than condemning them to hell.〔
