Happy Natural Family Planning Awareness Week!

"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." From the USCCB website.


How cool is it that there is a week dedicated to NFP?! Check your local diocese website to see if they have any events or workshops :)

And I challenge us all to say a prayer for all couples considering using NFP and for those who use it to share their stories and knowledge with as many people as possible!
