We are addressing her and asking her to pray for us.

Unless you have convicing evidence otherwise, she is still asleep in the Lord awaiting the next resurrection of the saints, just as are many believers in Jesus Christ, our one and only Savior.

We don't believe that the saints are asleep. We believe all we are waiting for is to get our glorified bodies back. Souls go to Heaven, Hell or Purgatory for a time. The Communion of Saints is alive and well and with Christ. So it's not at all absurd to us to ask them to pray for us.

I know that you will come back with a demand that I prove it to you from the Bible. I suggest you contact a theologian. I am not a theologian or Biblical scholar, nor have I ever claimed to be. It's what I believe and nothing you come up will ever change that. For what it is worth, I don't care if you believe it, that is your right.
