There is much more to the celebrations, but I did not want to bore you.

How many times will the phrase, Hail Mary, Mother of GOD be uttered in all of these celebrations?

Do you intentionally mix the terms in the prayer, or do you really not know that it is Holy Mary, mother of God?

The prayer is:

Hail Mary, full of grace
the Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou among women
Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary, mother of God
Pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our death
Amen

The Hail Mary is never said during Mass. Unless I missed any, the only mention of the mother of Jesus in the Scripture readings is:

25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! 27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.mention Mary phrase will not be uttered at all. John 19:25-27 KJV

The readings mention the other Marys more often than they mention His mother.

But to answer your question, I know of at least one mention of Holy Mary, mother of God; in the Litany of Saints during the Easter Vigil.
