Shrove Tuesday Pancake Celebration

One of the features of a traditional Lenten fast is the removal of sugar and fat from the diet. That’s why it’s common in Anglican practice to celebrate Shrove Tuesday—the day before the beginning of Lent—with a pancake dinner.

Join us on Tuesday, March 4th, for Evening Prayer at 4:30 PM and pancakes beginning at 5:00 PM. Please note that we will not offer childcare for this event, as it’s designed to be a celebration for the whole family (extra high chairs and booster seats are available in the kitchen).

Also note that after Wednesday, February 26th, the cost to attend dinner will increase from $10 per adult to $15.

RSVP as soon as possible so we know how much food to provide.
