Are You Ready for National NFP Awareness Week?

July 21 – 27, 2024
Love Beyond Measure
Natural Family Planning
Supporting God’s gifts of love and life in marriage

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, along with other resources, to assist all to focus attention on Natural Family Planning methods and Church teachings that 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. Pope Francis has designated that feast as World Grandparents Day, a fitting commemoration during National NFP Awareness Week!

Sharing basic information about NFP and why it supports God’s design for love and life is at the heart of this national campaign. The following USCCB resources can be found at the link at the bottom of this page, and used to create articles for diocesan newspapers, enhance websites, Facebook, and media threads. Permission is granted by the USCCB to reproduce these resources in print or electronically.
