NFP Ambassador Training

Are you interested in supporting NFP and Fertility Awareness ministry in your parish, but you aren’t sure where to begin? Would you like to help the diocese provide more resources for women and couples on the NFP resources available, but you don’t necessarily want to become a certified instructor? We invite you to become an NFP Ambassador!

What is an NFP “ambassador”?
Ambassadors are the heart of a parish’s Natural Family Planning ministry. They are individuals or couples who serve as first points of contact for NFP resources within the community. Through this day-long retreat, Ambassadors become experts in general NFP biomarkers, methods, and resources… PLUS they get to discern their unique role in NFP support and start making a custom plan!

“This was the perfect way to clarify our direction for NFP ministry in our parish. Christina’s experience and resources are such an amazing tool for us to learn from and use in our own ministries.”
-Elissa, Ambassador trainee

Is this training available in Spanish?
This year the NFP Ambassador Training is only available in English; however, some of the resources and teaching materials for NFP Ambassadors are available in both English and Spanish. We encourage both English speaking and bilingual leaders to attend this formation retreat as we expand NFP/Fertility Awareness Resources throughout the diocese.
