Best Answer

Being a pillar of the church simply means that they are a very strong supporter and integral part of the church body (not the building, but the group of people). Pillars are used to support buildings so the expression is a metaphor.

It is used for people who contribute to such an extent that it would be difficult for the church to continue without them.

Generally, this turn of phrase means that you are a person who is central to the community, either because of (1) connections to other community members, (2) generous donations of time, (3) generous donations of money, or (4) services rendered to the community in prayer.

How do you say a prayer of the mother of the church?

There is no mother of the Christian Church. We the body of Christ are the bride and Jesus is the Bride Groom.If your asking, "How does one pray to Mary?", then you shouldn't bother, because Mary was a sinner and is the mother of no church. She only found favor in Gods eyes and in doing so was chosen to give birth of His son Jesus.
