The Details:

A woman is (re)introduced to her body through instruction in charting with the Creighton Model FertilityCare System.

This instruction happens primarily in on-on-one follow-up appointments where the Practitioner and student can effectively manage the student’s chart.

More than this, however, is the opportunity for individualized formation and prayer between the Practitioner as a mentor and the student.

A woman comes to small groups primarily as a means of building community and relationships with other women who will accompany her in her spiritual and intellectual journey in the faith.

These groups will focus on the obtaining of knowledge of the faith in various ways, most commonly through studies and readings. Prayer, especially Lectio Divina (“Divine Reading”), is an integral aspect of these small groups.

Large group retreats will be hosted to kick off the charting and small groups. These events follow the Acts 2:42 model of ministry:

“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” Acts 2:42

Following this model, the day will consist of several talks on biological and spiritual femininity, fellowship over a shared meals, and prayer—especially prayer in the Presence of the Blessed Sacrament.
