Help Spread the News

Would you like to spread the good news about married love?
There are several ways you can help. CCL needs couples to provide NFP instruction, and couples or individuals to help make others aware of the blessings of NFP and married love. You can assist over the entire Northern Virginia area or even just in your own parish.
Teaching Couple
If you can spare one day or night a month to teach a two-hour class to some of the nicest people you will ever meet and know you are really helping couples, then become a teaching couple. Teaching Couples are asked to teach a minimum of two series of classes per year and to be available for follow-up counseling calls.
A complete, standardized instruction program and teacher-support system is provided by the Couple to Couple League. CCL's standardized study program will further develop your understanding of the Sympto-Thermal Method of NFP and your ability to help couples in a variety of cycle situations. This training program can be completed entirely at home or by by a combination of home reading and attending a teacher training workshop.
For more information, contact a local teaching couples or the central office of the Couple to Couple League International.

Promoter
Promoters are an important part of the CCL organization. They coordinate and implement regional and local efforts to publicize NFP, the courses, and events planned by the local chapter. Sample activities include:
- Talk to your Pastor about Natural Family Planning;
- With your Pastor's permission, place pamphlets and class announcements at your parish;
- Offer to support engaged or married couples or to address parish groups;
- Staff a CCL booth at local events (e.g., Catholic conferences, homeschooling conferences, bridal and health fairs, etc.);
- Write and place newspaper announcements;
- Assist teaching couples (e.g., setup and registration) at NFP classes;
- Create your own promotion ideas.
For more information, contact a local teaching couple or CCL's central office. Registration as an official CCL promoter will be done by CCL International's central office. See above on how to contact CCL "central".
Parish Representative
Even if you don't feel up to taking on a formal teaching or promotion role, feel free to talk it up about Natural Family Planning and CCL. If you enjoyed the classes and it meant something to you and your spouse, don't be afraid to let others know about it.
If you can help our chapter with your local parish or even occasionally for other activities, please consider being a parish representative. Parish representatives are informal aids in spreading the good news about NFP. No formal commitment is required, just a willingness to help when you can. (See the promoter section above for possible areas to consider.) If you can help in this regard, contact any of the local teaching couples.
