Significance of the Virgin Mary and Our Lady of Grace

The Virgin Mary is seen as the ultimate example of grace. Her life was a perfect demonstration of God's love and mercy. It is believed she never sinned, not even once.

Even though she was not born without original sin, she was still without personal sin. This is what is meant when it is said that she was immaculately conceived. The grace of God preserved her from all sin.

The Virgin Mary is an intercessor before God. She is a powerful intercessor, and her prayers are always heard by God.
