Everything is correct Catholic Doctrine, except I don't know that Mary is Coredemptrix and Mediatrix. HOWEVER, asking Mary to ask Jesus brings you closer to BOTH.....Jesus LOVES His Mother and wants us to Love Her also!

Protestants, diss Mary at your own peril. No one likes to hear their mother dissed.....ESPECIALLY JESUS and GOD who CHOSE Mary to be Jesus's Mother.

I can't recall ever hearing a Protestant do that.

“Protestants, diss Mary at your own peril”
This is a silly premise that I notice many Catholics cling to; the notion that Protestants do not like Mary. Of course, this is an absurdity since Bible reading Protestants understand that Mary was blessed among women and accord her that honor. What Protestants do not approve of is the Roman Catholic and Orthodox adulation of Mary that is akin to worship, if not actually so in some cases. Worship is to be given to Christ alone, of course. Mary, the mother of Jesus is an example of piety and love in the Bible and Protestants are taught that. So perhaps once and for all, Catholics will not make the assumption that just because Protestants do not kneel before statues of Mary in the sanctuary does not mean we do not recognize the “humble bondservant of God.”
