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 organization 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.
Courage UK bears no affiliation to Courage International, a Roman Catholic ministry which discourages gay people from relationships.

Famous quotes containing the word courage:
“[Rutherford B. Hayes] was a patriotic citizen, a lover of the flag and of our free institutions, an industrious and conscientious civil officer, a soldier of dauntless courage, a loyal comrade and friend, a sympathetic and helpful neighbor, and the honored head of a happy Christian home. He has steadily grown in the public esteem, and the impartial historian will not fail to recognize the conscientiousness, the manliness, and the courage that so strongly characterized his whole public career.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
