Ex-Protestant here. The Blessed Mother led me to the Catholic Church through the miracle of Fatima! A bit of a testimony, but that's what happened! I am so happy and fullfilled to come home to the fullness of Christ's true Church! Praise and Glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. God bless, I love everyone of you!

Catholics do not worship our Heavenly Mother, we do love, honor and respect her as God does. We could never love her more than He does.

Catholics do not worship Mary, and Protestants do not worship God. Worship is via the Mass.

We catholics follow what Virgen Mary said in John 2:5
“ “Do whatever he tells you.”

[frank-mmoo]

I am blessed by the Holy Spirit to be Catholic, and I praise God for it.

As a Protestant and I am speaking respectfully this is a reason why this conception comes about and is common. It's because of all the images of Mary that fill Catholic Churches. Statues, icons, pictures. Prayers invoking Mary herself. It's easy to see why this question gets asked. I would ask respectfully at what point does the line between veneration and worship get drawn? At what point should one be concerned about overly focusing on Mary and not the Lord Himself? I will honestly say that in Protestant churches sometimes Mary dosen't get the honest respect and adoration she should be given. But I think even Mary herself would not want her children overly focusing on her instead of Her precious Son. I feel that there is a dangerous line between adoration and idolatry or as was pointed out in this video worshipping the creature instead of the creator. This is something I think every Christian should ponder and reflect upon.

Hello Keith. Great explanation. Our Blessed Mother, Star of the Sea, pray for thy children, pray for me.
I live in a coastal town, and this hymn is very special to our fishermen.
Thank you, Keith.
The hymn is Stella Maris. Star of the Sea. JRR Tolkien's fav hymn, so I'm told.
We INVOKE Our Blessed Mother to INTECEDE for us to her son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Pax Christi.

Eve by her disobedience removing the forbidden fruit from the tree thus bringing death into the world, the new eve our blessed mother Mary thru her obedience allowed and put the the fruit (our lord Jesus) back on the tree (cross) and brought life and salvation back into the world thus reversing the curse.

I didn't doubt you for a moment with this question. I knew where you were going with this! Very good explanation. Thank you so much!!

Keith your gift is how you kindly respond to our Christian brothers & sisters who unfortunately have been programmed to oppose Mary. If you yourself changed your heart towards Mary, may the Holy Spirit use that for others who see this video. AMEN 🙏 ❤

oh man, this is gonna get the prots riled up in the comments. i’m saving this for after dinner. It’s gonna be my "dessert" YouTube video... and who said fasting was horrible?

[djacobmadrigal]

I’m Catholic. All my life. We don’t worship her we pray to her to intercede on our behalf.

A video about our blessed mother Mary? in loving this series 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻

[bengacosta]

Worshiping is different from praying. Since the Blessed Mother always lead us to her Son. We ask her to pray for us to Her Son. ❤🙏We love the Blessed Mother so dearly, we respect her because she's the Mother of God and there's nothing wrong with that. Peace be with you brothers and sisters.

[lukebrown]

Honestly it’s never what it looks like. God looks at inward appearances. He knows we love her and he’s happy for us. Jesus wouldn’t want us to think less of his mother. I loved our month of Mary so much that I did it again with GabiAfterHours. I want to use Lent to grow closer to her.

HALLELUJAH JESUS LOVE YOU FROM LEBANON BEIRUT AVE MARIA ♥️🌲♥️🇱🇧

Since Jesus is our mediator, why not just go to him? Wouldn't that be the surest and shortest route? Not trying to argue just wondering what the thinking is on this?
