Evergreen International

Evergreen International

Evergreen International, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Salt Lake City, Utah, whose stated mission is to assist "people who want to diminish same-sex attractions and overcome homosexual behavior". It adheres to Christian and particularly Mormon teaching, but is independent of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). The organization believes this task can be accomplished with the help of Jesus and, in some cases, psychological counseling. Evergreen was founded in 1989 as a grassroots organization by eleven ex-gay men who were seeking to deal with their homosexuality in ways congruent to the teachings of the LDS Church.

Famous quotes containing the word evergreen:

    The evergreen woods had a decidedly sweet and bracing fragrance; the air was a sort of diet-drink, and we walked on buoyantly in Indian file, stretching our legs.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
