So, as I asked another on this thread...
Is Mary in Heaven, Limbo, Purgatory (oh wait. she like Christ was without sin??) or sleeping with the rest of the saints in Christ until the Resurrection?
Why pray to her? Does Jesus need her help getting everything done?
Mary was assumed into heaven. The Early Church Fathers wrote about what happened. It’s also called The Dormition of Mary by the Orthodox Church.
Mary is the Queen of Heaven. Does that help?
