I'd like to pray the 54 Day Rosary novena. Is there a special way to pray it? I mean, is there a specific beginning/ending prayer? Can you have more than one intention for the entire novena? There are maybe 3 important intentions i'd like to pray for so im wondering if i can include them all or will i have to have 3 different 54 day novenas for them. My mom has a book that has beginning/ending prayers and a prayer to include your intention. Unfortunately she is half way accross the world and it will take a week or so to get to me. I'd like to start ASAP. TIA!

There is a booklet available that has special prayers at the start and end of each Rosary, at the start and end of each decade of the Rosary. Also, each decade has a virtue on which to meditate. Your mom is probably sending you the booklet to which I'm referring.

I think on our old computer we might have a had a file with the novena prayers; I'd have to ask my husband if we have the file still. If we do, I'm happy to pass it along to you so you can have the novena prayers.

If you're really aching to go ahead with it, even without your mom's booklet, I would just go ahead and start praying the Rosary as a novena without the extra prayers. You can add your own if you want though.

As with most (if not all) other novenas and prayers, you don't have to limit your intentions to just one.

Hi again, my husband found the file, and I can send it to you. If you send me a private message with your email address, I will send it to you. He also emailed me a file that helps you track where you are in the novena. I think you just need to put in the start date and it calculates the rest. I'd have to double check that with him though. Let me know if you want that also.
