• Nations will be united in praying for the same intentions during the four Rosary Novenas.
• Each nation will also have one special intention for their country.
• Each Crusader will pray for the personal intentions of all participating in this Crusade.
• The personal intentions of each Crusader. (It is important to write down as many personal intentions as possible for each novena. These intentions will be prayed for by all who are participating in this Crusade and therefore they do not have to be mentioned out loud. The writing down of these intentions will help Crusaders remember what they are praying for during the each novena.)
