RELIGION just in Pope declares new feast day devoted to the Virgin Mary
Again, more Mary Worship just enough to take ones eyes of Christ.
VATICAN CITY – Pope Francis has made the devotion to the Virgin Mary a new fixed celebration in the Roman Catholic calendar.
The Vatican published a decree Saturday in which Francis declared that the Mary "Mother of the Church" feast would be celebrated on the Monday following Pentecost. This year, it falls on May 21.
The decree said Francis wanted the devotion to "encourage the growth of the maternal sense of the Church in the pastors, religious and faithful, as well as a growth of genuine Marian piety."
History's first Latin American pope is particularly devoted to Marian piety and frequently refers to the church as "mother."
In 2016, Francis set another feast day for another key woman in Christ's life, declaring July 22 as the feast of St. Mary Magdalene.

Re: RELIGION just in Pope declares new feast day devoted to the Virgin Mary
I recall when the Catholic Church was talking of making Mary Co-Mediatrix
with Jesus Christ.
Do you know what happened with this or if it happened??
I have family members living and dead who were Catholic,Byzantine Catholic,Russian Orthodox ...

2 Thessalonians 2:10b-12 King James Version
... because THEY RECEIVED NOT THE LOVE OF THE TRUTH, that they might be saved... God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: THAT THEY ALL MIGHT BE DAMNED who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
