My Queen! my Mother! I give thee all myself, and, to show my devotion to thee, I consecrate to thee my eyes, my ears, my mouth, my heart, my entire self. Wherefore, O loving Mother, as I am thine own, keep me, defend me, as thy property and possession. Amen. How many of those do we need to post? You can proclaim all you want that Catholics don't pray TO Mary but we ain't buying the Catholic lie.

Kind of a pretty prayer...could you provide the name of the author and the date that the Catholic Church accepted it as part of church teaching??.......thought so.

Can you prove it wasn't accepted by the RCC in secret, with no record kept...thought so.

Maybe you recognize this....

CCC 2679 Mary is the perfect Orans (pray-er), a figure of the Church. When we pray to her, we are adhering with her to the plan of the Father, who sends His Son to save all men. Like the beloved disciple we welcome Jesus' mother into our homes, for she has become the mother of all the living. We can pray with and to her. The prayer of the Church is sustained by the prayer of Mary and united with it in hope.

What was that about catholics not praying TO Mary???

It’s found here: http://www.catholic.org/prayers/prayer.php?s=31

Now tell us how catholic.org is not a sanctioned Catholic site.

You've left no crumbs at all.
