Veneration of Mary

The Veneration of Mary refers to the respect, honor, and devotion that many Christians, particularly Catholics, show towards Mary, the mother of Jesus. While not worshipped as divine, she is celebrated for her unique role in salvation history. Believers may pray to her for intercession, as she is seen as a compassionate and understanding figure. Feast days, prayers like the Rosary, and various titles such as "Queen of Heaven" highlight her significance. This veneration underscores her exemplary faith and devotion to God, encouraging followers to emulate her qualities in their own lives.
