About Saint Mary's and a practical road to chastity
My mission is to guide, support, and teach couples who want to learn about the science of Natural Family Planning (NFP), which is the natural and scientific way of achieving or delaying pregnancy. NFP is the cornerstone of Fertility Awareness of family planning, which is in full accordance with the Catholic teaching.
I instruct couples in the Marquette Method, which uses high-tech effective hormonal testing, in addition to other biomarkers (e.g. cervical mucus and temperature) to postpone or achieve pregnancy naturally — based on published, science-based evidence. I offer this service in both English and Spanish.

First Let'sDiscover
At Saint Mary's, I focus on the person and the dignity of human life. When we get in touch, I will endeavour to get to know you and your story so I can approach your reproductive need with dignity. I offer free initial consultation online.

Next, let's seeHow I can help
Fertility Awareness for single women and Natural Family Planning (NFP) for couples is what I teach and help with. The learning involves tracking your biomarkers of fertility (e.g. hormones in urine, cervical mucus, and temperature) and charting your menstrual cycle in order to develop a better awareness of your body's fertility pattern. I teach women and couples in groups and/or individual sessions online.

Then, you can choose to have ongoingConsultation
My instruction starts with knowing how fertility works and reproductive hormonal health. This requires charting and ongoing consultation to help you navigate with confidence, whether you use it as an NFP method or in seeking restorative reproductive medicine to treat the route of your menstrual irregularities.

Monica Rincon, BSc, MSc
I have been an NFP instructor, working in English and Spanish, for the last 20 years and a fertility consultant since 2019 — with over 15 years of experience in various methods of Natural Family Planning (NFP), including Billings Ovulation, Creighton, FEMM, and the one that I am so eager to teach now — the Marquette Model of NFP. I hold a Bachelor's of Science degree with a major in Medical Laboratory Technologies, as well as a Masters in Microbiology. I've worked as senior Medical Microbiologist and as an instructor for Medical Microbiology for the University of Lethbridge since 2017. With this background, I understand the science behind testing urine for hormones, providing new approaches to NFP methods. My experience as an educator empowers me to have a clear and compassionate approach to teach and accompany couples or women on their journey to understand their fertility and use an NFP method. |
