Our History

For years, we catered to the Municipal District of Willow Creek Christmas dinners for approximately 500 people. This was our major money maker for the year.

In 1992, Sister Mary Sundquist was elected as Warden of the Rebekah Assembly of Alberta. The next three years were very busy with visiting and helping Mary. In 1994 to 1995, she was President. The following year, she was given the Decoration of Chivalry, which is the highest order anyone can receive in the lodge. We were very proud of her, as she is the only one to have received this honour. We were very sad at Mary's passing on February 13, 2003. Mary to date has been Stavely's only President of the Rebekah Assembly.

Sister Marg Sinclair had the honour of being the Alberta Flag Bearer at the International Association of Rebekah Assemblies which was held in Chicago, U.S.A.

Our numbers have declined with time, but we continue doing the work of our Order the best we can. In 2000, we worked at our first casino in Lethbridge. This was a big boost to us. Over the years we have tried to lighten our meetings on special occasions such as Valentine's Day and Halloween by dressing up and playing games.

As of January 2002, our membership was 39
