Pope Leo XIV met with members of Courage International on Feb. 6 in what the ministry called a \u201chistoric\u201d and \u201cmomentous\u201d event that took place in Vatican City. <\/p>\n

The Connecticut-based ministry, which for nearly half a century has ministered to Catholics dealing with same-sex attraction, said in a press statement<\/a> that leaders associated with the group, including Bridgeport Bishop Frank Caggiano and group Executive Director Father Brian Gannon, met with the Holy Father in a private audience. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe opportunity to share with the Holy Father the works of the apostolate, to provide pastoral accompaniment to persons who experience same-sex attraction but who strive to live chaste lives or to accompany family members who have a loved one who identifies as LGBTQ, was a momentous occasion,\u201d the group said. <\/p>\n

Officially founded in 1980, Courage International marked 45 years in 2025<\/a> of helping individuals struggling with sexuality to \u201clive a chaste life\u201d in line with Church teaching. Originally founded in Manhattan, the group\u2019s headquarters is based in Bridgeport.<\/p>\n

\n

Pope Leo \u201cis very, very supportive of everything that Courage is doing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gannon, who came into the leadership role at the organization in 2024, told EWTN News on Feb. 6 that the meeting \u2014 the group’s first with a pope \u2014 was an \u201cextraordinary gift\u201d from the Holy Father.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pope was very gracious, a very good listener,\u201d he said. \u201cWe talked about the importance of chastity, how it heals and strengthens and restores the person. The pope was obviously very encouraging.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Holy Father in turn \u201ctalked about freedom, about what real freedom is \u2014not the unbridled freedom that the world offers, but rather mastering our passions and being in complete surrender to the will of God.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gannon said the meeting with Leo constitutes a \u201chuge morale booster\u201d for the group, which has chapters in over a dozen countries and numbers more than 200 chaplains, including through its family support ministry, EnCourage. <\/p>\n

\u201cAll the members of Courage throughout the whole world will see that the pope extended an audience and listened and is very, very supportive of everything that Courage is doing,\u201d Gannon said, calling the encounter \u201ca huge blessing.\u201d<\/p>\n

The priest told EWTN News last year that the organization is a \u201cneeded ministry\u201d that \u201chelps people find peace.\u201d <\/p>\n

Group members \u201ccome together, read through the goals, discuss their experiences and challenges during the week, and pray,\u201d he said. \u201cPrayer is absolutely central to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Feb. 6, Gannon said, the pope spoke to the group about \u201cthe woundedness of people,\u201d and how \u201cJesus Christ is always with you and you\u2019re never alone.\u201d <\/p>\n

Gannon described the group\u2019s mission as helping people to develop self-control in service to Christ. He offered the example of someone who falls into water and is \u201dthrashing about,\u201d unable to swim. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe person who learns how to swim is really free, not the person who\u2019s thrashing about,\u201d he said. \u201cYou put the passions to good use for the pursuit of God.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
