i feel like this might be too op if it can search for any good dom and is territory class, but if it just searched for SoG, and wasn't territory class, i think that would be appropriate. if it was any dom, you could potentially search for Grapes one turn, and then Aotl the next! cool idea though, but what would the verse be? Also, because there is a lot theological debate around Mary, i doubt this would get printed, much like why they haven't printed a Hagar.

Like it! Perhaps the verse from Revelation about the woman clothed with the sun and standing on the moon?

I have serious theological issue with this idea, not to mention that its unbalanced.

I would like this card better if it said something like this: "If a N.T. angel is in play, search deck for a good dominant and then set Mary aside for X turns." X could equal the number of N.T. females in your holder's territory or something.  This way Mary isn't searching for good dominants each turn.  That could be OP'd as was stated earlier.  I think this might work for your idea a little better.  Theologically, I think it's ok as she did give birth to Christ and she could search for SoG. I'm married to a former Catholic. I can appreciate this card as I know that Mary is highly regarded in the Catholic church.

I do like this idea a lot better, as it could fit in much better with the current themes. i still think its too op to search for any other dom except for SoG. also, if it was just mary the mother of Jesus, i could see it being printed, but as Mary, Mediatrix, there is too much theological debate around it to be printed.
