Eden Invitation creates space to receive the whole person, grow systems of mutual support, and empower for creative discipleship. We are disciples with LGBTQ+ experiences, building community with others who desire a way of life in congruence with Christ and His Church.

Courage International

Courage members are men and women who experience same-sex attractions and who have made a commitment to strive for chastity. They are inspired by the Gospel call to holiness and the Catholic Church’s beautiful teachings about the goodness and inherent purpose of human sexuality.

Through our apostolate, people who experience same-sex attraction receive pastoral support in the form of spiritual guidance, community prayer support, and fellowship.

Eden Invitation Values

BELOVED UNREPEATABILITY  – I accept my identity as imago Dei and the shaping of my unique story. I steward my whole person as a gift from God the Father. I come before God daily in authenticity and surrender.

​MUTUAL BELONGING – I reverence each person as holy ground. I come out of hiding to be loved. Together we are all responsible for one another’s good.

​JOYFUL HOPE – I trust in God’s providential care for my past, present, and future. I celebrate the Holy Spirit’s creativity in my charisms and callings. I step into self-gift for my community, the Church, and the world.
