God has told us all along to be fruitful and multiply. I do not attend a catholic church. I wonder if any believers actually ponder that “family planning” is not biblical.

I don't see any contradiction between being fruitful and multiplying and using contraception to prevent unwanted multiplying.

I don't think there's anything wrong with a church designing and advocating policies in order grow its flock, either. Churches that don't concern themselves with the business end of things don't last too long.

Natural Family Planning does not thward the conception process. It is a program of abstinence.
