For couples
Natural Family Planning
"According to the plan of God, marriage is the foundation of the wider community of the family." — Saint John Paul II, Familiaris Consortio 14
To live conjugal love as a free, total, faithful, and life-giving gift, couples benefit from understanding the truth and beauty of their sexuality, listening to the language their bodies speak, and embracing Natural Family Planning in their marriage.
Bishop Gregory Mansour of the Eparchy of Saint Maron invites every engaged couple to receive sufficient Natural Family Planning instruction. Marise Frangie — Director of the Office of Family and Sanctity of Life, certified Creighton Model FertilityCare practitioner and educator — together with her husband Deacon Peter Frangie, offers a free online introductory session of about 90 minutes covering the methods, scientific basis, effectiveness, and benefits of NFP, with an overview of the Creighton Model System.
