What Couples Are Saying

“It’s been nearly two years now since my wife Kathleen and I took our NFP class with you.  I can’t tell you enough about the powerful ways that NFP has worked in our marriage.  We have definitely experienced a great sense of freedom since leaving the pill behind.”
— SS, Chicago, Illinois

“My husband and I have been practicing NFP since we were married a little over a year ago. We love it and would never practice anything else.”
— S.P., CA

“We both really appreciate knowing what my body is up to. We also appreciate the tone and diction of The Art of Natural Family Planning.”
— K.S., WV

“I want to thank you for what you have brought into my life. I was on the Pill, and while I was happy with its effectiveness, something was missing. I now feel so much healthier — physically and spiritually.”
— K., VA

“…we successfully used NFP to achieve our first pregnancy and now have a beautiful 9 month old girl, Annie Rose. As a high school science teacher I was amazed at how much I didn’t know about my own body, and was grateful to find an alternative lifestyle that was rooted in my Catholic beliefs.”
