I really did not know where else to post this .... however, I saw someone (in another thread) mention their DC really enjoys Mary Memory.

I did a google search for "Mary Memory" and only 2 places offer them - but both are on backorder indefinitely.

My DD has such a love and adoration for Mother Mary and is constantly asking to say Hail Mary's, Hail Holy Queen, and our newly added prayer to Mother Mary - the Consecretion to Mary.

Therefore with all that said, I am searching for the Mary Memory to purchase for her. I know she would absolutely love it.

Could someone please let me know where else I might be able to look?

TIA everyone!!!!

We purchased our from CHC, but I know I've seen it elsewhere. I've not looked recently so I don't know about backorders. (and I can't seem to find it on CHC's website anymore...)

The only pair I didn't really like was the child's rendition of the Visitation to Elizabeth - I normally love children's artwork, but pregnant Elizabeth just didn't look quite right, especially compared to the other beautiful art samples in the set.

It looks like this vendor - Catholic Gift Outlet - has them! It might be worth a call to check because like you, I was finding almost everyone out of stock. It could be that this product has been discontinued.

btw, I entered "Catholic Memory Card Game" in a google search to find these. You could probably find a few other sets out there left to be snatched up...but not long now that we've announced it!

Blast!

Well, keep a watch on ebay, or with a picture of the set from a vendor, you could certainly try your hand at making your own set - laminated nicely - I don't think it would be that hard to do.

The Marian Apparition trading cards would be a great start for you! and VERY inexpensive!

Also, Catholic Artworks has some beautiful options...I've been tempted for soooo long to purchase some of their CD collections. You might consider looking through there. It could be a really fun project putting together a set of Rummy cards from a collection like this, and everyone would be involved! Get your laminator smokin' and voila!

Sorry about the Mary Rummy cards though! That is a bummer! I don't have them either.

Has anyone ever purchased from St. Andrew's Church Supply located in Canada? How is their customer service? I found the Mary Memory game through them.

Did you find a set of Mary Memory? I was searching Linda's site and found them there - Sacred Heart Books and Gifts.....I placed them in a cart and nothing came up backordered....worth a try.

If anyone still needs a copy ... Sacred Heart is out of 'em but there is a new-ish online resource called The Upper Room that has some in stock -- I emailed first to confirm they had them and the owner sent a lovely note back.

Also seems that K4J has a set of cards -- same idea but the images are cartoony ... not my preference but kids might like those.
