To honour Mary, Catholics pray the "Hail Mary" or "Hail Holy Queen". Many people think that Catholics pray and worship her but they don't. They just have much respect for her because she was chosen to be the Mother of Jesus.

∙ 11y agoThe best way to honor The Blessed Virgin Mary is by praying the rosary once a day. Also, if you can afford to and ever get an opportunity, visit one of the famous
Marian shrines, like Lourdes in France.
Another way to honor Mary is to attend a "First Saturday" service at your parish. Check with your priest if they have a "First Saturday" for time and place. Ave Maria!

What is meaning of the Hail Mary prayer?
The meaning of the Hail Mary prayer is to ask Mary to pray for us. She is immaculate and never has displeased God, and she gave birth to God the Son who had become Flesh by the power of the Holy Spirit. So she is very close and we ask her to pray for us because she has a strong relationship with God. We don't worship Mary, we worship God who created everyone, Jesus did mention that you can pray directly to God but it is a more humble way of praying, and the prayers of saints are more powerful than our prayers. But in old English word, to worship means to give honor. E.g His Worship is a title given to Mayor. So in the sense of old English word, it is right to say that we 'worship' Mary. It is later only that the word "worship" is reserved only to a deity, a God. It is also the same with prayers to angels and saints. "Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among woman and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen." In old English, to pray means to ask or to request. Prayer means a request. We pray to got because we request from got. We pray to Mother Mary because we request Mary to pray for us. Hail Mary, (giving honor to Mary, would anyone disagree giving honor to another being?) full of grace (It's in the Bible! search harder! full of grace means free from sin. Adam and Eve were full of grace) the Lord is with thee (hope no one will say this unbiblical. the Lord is with all of us) blessed art thou among woman (she's the most blessed among all women for the Lord have chosen her. It's in the bible!) and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. (hope no one's denying this) Holy Mary, (she's holy because she's set apart for the work of God!) Mother of God (Jesus is fully God and Man. To say that Mary is mother to human Jesus ONLY means denying that Jesus wasn't God when He walked on Earth) pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death (speaks of itself)
