Natural Family Planning

"Supported by science, experience has confirmed the educational value of
Natural Family Planning in contributing to an integrated vision of
sexuality, marriage and responsible procreation."
 (Pope Saint John Paul II)

All women can benefit from tracking the signs of their cycles to know their bodies better!  Daily charting helps women to recognize the signs of a healthy cycle, and to note any irregularities such as painful periods, abnormal bleeding, or unusual discharge.  Fertility Awareness empowers women to monitor their overall health and, if necessary, to share this valuable information with their doctors. 

Married love offers a matchless privilege to a husband and wife - through their bodily expression of total love, spouses have the potential to bring forth new life!  This is both a great joy and responsibility.  Natural Family Planning (NFP) allows spouses to discern together what is God's plan for their family, while honoring the life-giving capacity of their marital union.

Fertility Awareness: for girls, teens, women & men.
NFP Journey: basics to get you started.
NFP Classes:  local on-site and online classes.
Resources for Couples: charting apps, communities, and Catholic teaching. 
Parish Resources: for integrating NFP into parish programs and liturgy.
