Natural Family Planning International

NFP International offers the complete approach to natural family planning.  NFP can be taught directly from the NFPI manual.  Thus it can be taught in poor countries where electricity is not always available.  The NFPI manual can also be downloaded for free for the poor.  Free charts are available for anyone at the home page of www.nfpandmore.org.

What is unique about NFP International? 
• It is the only American NFP text that teaches ecological breastfeeding as a form of natural family planning for spacing births. NFPI instruction does not force anyone to breastfeed for any specific duration, but it does empower couples to make a well informed choice.  One can choose only what they know.
• It is the only  American NFP text that uses the simple-to-grasp covenant statement of sexuality to explain and support the teaching of Humanae Vitae. 
• It is the only American NFP text that teaches the cross-checking signs in such a way that couples can determine the earliest start of Phase 3 consistent with all the evidence.  Thus Phase 3 may start one or two days earlier than with other rules.
• NFPI teaches all the fertility signs and their rules.
• NFPI spends considerable time teaching generosity in having children.
• NFPI teaches how to be chaste during the fertile time when avoiding pregnancy.
• NFPI teaches the need to have a sufficiently serious reason for avoiding pregnancy.
• NFPI teaches what the Catholic Churches teaches about sexuality and explains why the Church does so.
• NFPI believes that most persons of average intelligence can learn natural family planning by reading the NFPI manual.
• NFPI provides a very reasonably priced home study course for learners and engaged persons  preparing for marriage.
• NFPI provides free teacher training for those who are passionate about the NFPI Triple Strand and agree to teach from the NFPI manual.

SOME THANK YOU’S TO NFPI:
I absolutely LOVE your manual.  I am a 40-year-old mother of four (all spaced three years apart by breastfeeding and casual NFP use), and my fertility recently returned after our fourth child.  We have been aware of NFP for 13 years and even charted for the first few years but since our first baby came 10.5 years ago we have been very laid back about it.  With my “ecological” (as you call it) style of nursing we have enjoyed 15-24 months of natural “spacing” after each child, so we were never very serious about it until now. But at this point we wanted to know the method in full detail, and you have really given it to us with this manual.  I understand that some parents might be intimidated by all the rules and details that you present; maybe it was easier for us because I was already familiar with it.  For us though, your book is perfect.  We want ALL the information, and we are not afraid of complexity.  Thank you for giving us what we needed! — Michigan mother

I apologize for not being able to donate even that amount. My fiance’ met with a priest that day and I was in a rush to download it and get started. As a college student..my account was empty as usual…:).  I learned about the site by personally searching for it and advice from a spiritual director. I thought my relationship with the Lord was at its strongest point and that I understood myself as His female image…until I read the NFP manual. It is the most beautiful and Truth defending process I’ve ever encountered. I think it’s wonderful that people are able to download it from a website..even free of charge if necessary…because it shows how much the Truth needs to be out there no matter what. –Kentucky mother
