We are 100% open to children and will lovingly accept them as signs of God's blessing when He wills them for us. During those times when we discern a serious reason to delay pregnancy, we are committed to practicing Natural Family Planning, or NFP. We studied the Sympto-Thermal Method of NFP with a Couple-to-Couple League teaching couple here in Charlotte this spring.


If you would like to learn about Natural Family Planning:

• The Couple To Couple League
  On this home page you will find information on the Sympto-Thermal Method of natural family planning. They also have a bi-monthly publication you can subscribe to called Family Foundations which discusses the Sympto-Thermal method as well as other issues such as ecological breastfeeding.
• The Billings Ovulation Method of Natural Family Planning
  Are you planning to achieve or avoid/postpone pregnancy? Either way the Billings Method, developed by Drs. John and Evelyn Billings of Australia, will help you during all the stages of your reproductive life.
• Family of the Americas
  This website offers an overview of the Ovulation method (as they call it). It also has pages on achieving pregnancy, avoiding pregnancy, and on the anatomy and physiology of the reproduction system. They also have a great page (click here) on all the studies done on the method and how successful it was at preventing pregnancy.
• Examples of Misconceptions: Periodic Abstinence
  This page discusses the problems with the Rhythm Method, an early form of abstinence-based birth control not to be confused with Natural Family Planning.
