Many who pray to Mary have been taught that blessings can be gained by the repetition of set formulas ​ — prayers such as the Hail Mary, Our Father, and others.
Paljudele, kes Maarja poole palvetavad, on õpetatud, et nad saavad õnnistusi seeläbi, kui kordavad kindla sõnastusega palvetekste, nende hulgas „Ole tervitatud, Maarja ” (Ave Maria) ja„ Meie Isa ” (Pater Noster) palvet.
