Do you love Natural Family Planning?

If you have, please consider becoming an NFP teacher. We are currently experiencing an increase in NFP inquiries and class requests, but don't have enough active teachers to meet every need. We especially need candidates for:

  • Spanish speaking clients
  • Sympto-thermal methods (Couple to Couple League & Northwest )
  • Medical environments (Physicians, Nurses, Pharmacists, PAs,etc.)

All you need is a desire to spread the good news about NFP and the motivation to complete initial training. Medical background is a bonus, and NFP medical professionals are always needed! For more information, contact the Diocesan Family Planning Coordinator, Emily Beier.

NFP Awareness Week was July 25-31, 2010


Natural Family Planning Awareness Week is a national educational campaign. The Natural Family Planning Program of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops develops a poster each year with basic supportive materials. It is the individual dioceses however, that offer a variety of educational formats in the local church to focus attention on Natural Family Planning methods and Church teachings which support their use in marriage.

The dates of Natural Family Planning Awareness Week highlight the anniversary of the papal encyclical Humanae Vitae (July 25) which articulates Catholic beliefs about human sexuality, conjugal love and responsible parenthood. The dates also mark the feast of Saints Joachim and Anne (July 26), the parents of the Blessed Mother. For further information, contact nfp@usccb.org.

Stay tuned for more information from the Diocesan Office!
