A recently released Vatican report is drawing significant criticism, with some accusing it of presenting a “false and unjust” portrayal of an influential Catholic ministry. Mary Rice Hasson, a board member of Courage International, explains what the report says.

One of the earliest articles I read about the trans industry that made me realize I wasn't totally going insane about gender ideology was this article by @maryricehasson for @HumanumReview in 2018. It really opened my eyes (along with @bjportraits work) and it is a wonderful piece of investigative work. humanumreview.com/articles/the-t…

If you've followed the controversy around the Synod Study Group report (with testimonies from two men in civil "marriages"), you need to read this brief statement from @RCCourage
CourageInternational@RCCourage

Courage International's Response to the Synodal Report. (You are welcome to repost our response and the link below to our official press release) On Tuesday (5 May 2026), the Vatican’s General Secretariat of the Synod published the final report of Working Group 9, dedicated to “Theological Criteria and Synodal Methodologies for Shared Discernment of Emerging Doctrinal, Pastoral, and Ethical Issues.” As many outlets have already reported, the document contains an unflattering reference to the Courage Apostolate. Further, an accompanying “Annex” provides testimony from one individual about his negative experience with Courage. Courage considers this report to be both calumny and detraction against the organization and its members. Calumny, because the report mischaracterizes Courage’s work. Courage is not nor ever has been involved in “reparative therapy,” as alleged. The working group could have clarified this point by simply contacting Courage leadership. Rather than do so, however, the report presents one person’s experience and opinion as part of an official ecclesiastical document. Second, it is unjust to our members for the Synod to publicly present Courage meetings and members in a negative light on the basis of one person’s experience. This individual characterizes the meetings he attended as “secretive and hidden.” Courage members understand those meetings to be confidential and secure – precisely so that they can speak candidly and vulnerably without fear of someone reporting about them. Which is what this individual does when he describes people at the meeting as “lonely, hopeless, and often depressed.” Whether his estimation is correct, we don’t know. But it’s precisely because people often are lonely, hopeless, and depressed that we bring them together for support and insist on the confidentiality that enables them to speak freely about their struggles. Courage has suffered calumny and detraction before, but usually from secular outlets. It is a great sadness and an additional wound to our members to have this false and unjust depiction in a Vatican document. If synod officials would like to learn more about Courage International, Inc. and its apostolate over 45 years, our chaplains and members would be happy to meet with them. Contact: Rev. Kyle Schnippel, Chairman of the Board of Directors frschnippel@sgfp.org To go directly to the full press release please click the link below. ⬇️ couragerc.org/wp-content/upl…

Medicine never pretends a patient can change sex—except in “gender medicine.” Medicine never suggests a child is “born in the wrong body”—except in “gender medicine.” Medicine never permits a patient’s fantasy beliefs to dictate medical care—except in “gender medicine.” Medicine never intentionally harms a patient’s healthy body to fulfill the patient's irrational beliefs—except in “gender medicine.” Medicine never derails a child’s puberty because the child fears healthy development—except in “gender medicine.” Medicine never sterilizes a healthy child because the child fears growing up—except in “gender medicine.” Medicine never experiments on children who cannot consent and reap no benefit—except in “gender medicine.” “Gender medicine” is quackery, not medicine. Shut it down, now. @JenniferLahl @BorisSpider14 @SwipeWright @OurDutyUSA @benryanwriter @ChloeCole

Spot on: "'they' are still coming to 'trans' your kids, not so much in terms of their sex (although that fight is not yet over) but at the much deeper level: that of their very humanity. We may be winning the trans battle, but if we are not careful, we may just lose the trans war." @firstthingsmag
