Not only are they not in the Bible, but they are declared to be of Satan.
(any gospel but that which we have preached)
Nowhere in God’s word is there any assignment for Mary but that of rearing a family, which she did. Her many children are noted in several places, but nothing else beyond the providing of water for the first miracle.

The first miracle is a lesson. Our Lord wasn’t ready, He said it, but Jesus honored His mother’s request. The same today. You can pray to Mary for help. Our Lord especially desires you speak to her in prayer. Do not give me the “one mediator” verse. When you pray for a loved one to Jesus or the Father, you are a subordinate mediator. An intercessor so you believe you can intercede with prayer, think how powerful the saint’s intercession to God is for us.
Important, you didn’t and neither did the original “reformers” but others after them rejected Mary to distance themselves from Catholicism. Please do not take it personally. Mary cannot appear to those who reject the Church, instead, profess heresies. There may be exceptions to this in history that God permits. HANG ON, you will especially love and honor Mary, understand her place in redemption..at or after the “awakening” Rev 6:12-17. She loves you~~! You can speak to her now in prayer.
True, everyone agrees, God knows all of time. Satan (the serpent) despises Mary, he was given knowledge of her place in our Redemption and said no. This why Mary is spoken of in the first book of the Bible and the last book of the Bible and in between. She has a special place in the plan of Redemption.
Our Lord calls His mother “woman” several times. No where in Scripture does a son call his mother “woman.” Jesus knows the plan, Our Lord calls Mary “woman” to help everyone see, she’s the “woman.” The objection, the “woman” in Rev 12:1 is the Church or Israel not Mary. Some Bible verses have more than one meaning, same on events described. ABOVE any other meaning, the “woman” in Revelation 12:1 is Mary.
Rev 12:6 and 14 - God protects His faithful when they are persecuted. The coming and it’s happening right now, the deadly persecution of Christians. Mary, who is mother to everyone, she is the “woman” who will help watch over the faithful in hiding during this persecution in the Great Tribulation which is soon. Ask your guardian angel when the time comes, in the name of Jesus Christ, to guide you and your family to a place of refuge. Believe. The faithful will not be detected at these places of refuge.
Genesis 3:15
I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.
Rev 12:1
And a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars:
Rev 12:6
And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God, that there they should feed her a thousand two hundred sixty days.
12:14
And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the desert unto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
She is being painted as having some kind of super clout under the gospel, to the point that getting her prayers are worth getting uncounted prayers of mortals on earth.
This practically begs for the question to be asked, since she isn’t (as God is) omniscient or omnipresent, does she max out trying to serve all these requests at some point?
