How do Mary and the saints listen to perhaps millions of prayers at the same time? Now that they are in heaven do they now have the attribute of omniscience? Because God has this attribute we know that he can hear and respond to millions of simultaneous prayers. But do Mary and the saints have this same ability?

Many enthusiastic thanks for this observation. Why didn’t I think of that?

To God alone be ALL the glory! Man is less than nothing apart from His grace.
