Hi, Francisco —
The Short answer is No, however Mary still does pray for
you, whether you are a Catholic
or not.
You see when we pray to
Mary, we are actually asking her
to pray for us.
When we pray the Hail Mary, we ask
Mary to pray for us sinners.
That would be every one and since
we know she hears our request and
grants it, we know she prays for
us.
This in no way takes away from Christ.
It is the same as asking any other
living person to pray for you. The
exception is that Mary is already
in God's presence and better knows
His Will for your life when she prays,
hence, her prayers are powerful.
John
