[Blessed]

Everyone in heaven is able to see and answer prayers from people all over the world. "So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance." (Luke 15.10).

This is ridiculous. Mary can't goof up because when we pray to her, we are asking her to pray to God for us. If you see no value in intercessory prayer asked of those in heaven, who are always with God and see His face, then why do you ask prayers of sinners here below whenever trouble strikes?

Does this still work if Mary and the saints are in pergutory?

The Holy Souls in Purgatory can also pray for you, as we can pray for them, as they are also members of the Mystical Body of Christ.

However, Blessed Mary and the company of Saints and Martyrs are in heaven. This is certain because it is the very meaning of the term, saint.
