Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper

Tuesday, Feb. 13

Gathering Place

 

The UMM invite you to a Shrove Tuesday Pancake supper on Tuesday, February 13 from 4-7pm. 

 

Shrove Tuesday is the day before the start of Lent on Ash Wednesday. Lent, the 40 days leading up to Easter, is a time of abstinence, of giving things up. Shrove Tuesday began as a last chance to indulge and for people to use up many of the items in their cupboards they gave up during Lent. 

 

All are welcome, and we encourage you to invite your friends and neighbors.

 Contact James Davis (540-292-9340) if you have any questions.
