In the words of Coalition Coordinator Maureen Flynn, "The current grave crisis in the Church and the world can only be fully remedied by Heaven's spiritual weapons of the Holy Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, the Holy Rosary, and Fasting. Our Lord, His Blessed Mother, and the saints have told us that these spiritual weapons will destroy evil."

The goals of this 9-day Conference are to Pray & Fast for the following intentions:

for the Conversion of all Peoples & Nations
to Build a Culture of Life
for all Priests, Vocations, & Holiness for the Members of the Church
to Defend the Sanctity of Marriage & Family Life
for Peace and to Implore God's Mercy

Over the past 29 years, the conference has been endorsed by many prominent Catholics, most notably two saints: Pope Saint John Paul II, who gave the Movement two Apostolic Blessings, and Saint Teresa of Calcutta, who also gave her support for this Movement.
