An episcopalian, being an Anglican, adheres to the 39 Articles of faith as set down when the Church of England (the original Anglican Church) was formed in the 1500s. In Article 22 it states: "The Romish Doctrine concerning Purgatory, Pardons, Worshipping and Adoration, as well of Images as of Relics, and also Invocation of Saints, is a fond thing, vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the Word of God." In other words, praying to saints is a real no-no. Although there are some within the Anglican Church who still think in the old 'Catholic' way, the vast majority of the Anglican Church regards Mary as worthy of some respect, but refuses to believe in her as some form of intercessor or 'go-between' in prayer as the Catholics do, as praying to saints is forbidden by this article. Furthermore, whilst in the more Catholic wing of the Anglican Church you may still find the occasional statue of Mary, and small chapels within churches dedicated to her, most of these are relics from before the Anglican church was formed. And in no way would an Anglican venerate (or is it almost worship?) Mary in the same way as a Roman Catholic would.
