Every Christmas Gerry Geall and his wife Anne prepare a Nativity and Christmas light display at their acerage on Molson Road 50E just before Seddon’s Corner.
This effort is done on behalf of the Beausejour Knights of Columbus and the St. Mary Catholic Women’s League. An invitation has been made to all Knights and CWL members, their families and friends to visit the display starting during Advent Gates will be open from 5 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. daily.
Their acreage is located 12 km. east of Beausejour off highway 44. Turn at the Molson highway sign, south onto Moison Road 50E. Go approximately 1 km to 71-043 and watch for the lights on your left side.
Turn in at the large pole gate. Follow the Candy Canes. Take the driveway and drive straight turning to the right towards the house. Drive south towards the small shop/garage and out the south gate back on to Molson road. You are welcome to walk around the displays and also watch the tree lines for laser light displays. There is also a lit Mary statue to your left on the way out.
if you would like to stop by for hot chocolate and cookies by the masonry fireplace in the house or in the decorated small guest cabin, just phone ahead and let them know 204 268 4529. There is a catch though! They ask for a small donation towards Open Doorways Orphanage in Haiti.

As my double term as president of St Mary CWL comes to an end, whoever follows in our council’s new executive will be supported and available to those that take on this calling. It has been my pleasure to represent you. I was invited to Archbishop Legatt’s dinner for CWL presidents last week, and the 8 of us had a wonderful dinner and rich conversations about reconciliation, prison ministry, trips to Rome, our struggles with the aging CWL groups in Mb, Covid challenges etc.
Wishing you a reflective, slower paced, faith expanding Advent, and my sincere wishes to you all amazing ladies and Father Rene for a very Merry and Peaceful Christmas!
