Shrove Tuesday (February 17, 2026, 5:00–7:00 PM)—also known as Pancake Day or Mardi Gras—is just around the corner! This beloved annual celebration is more than a fun evening of food and fellowship. It is also the only money-making event hosted by St. Mary’s Guild each year, and a meaningful way we support the Guild’s ministries and outreach.
This event is especially meaningful to our church family, as it is also a time when we remember and honor our dear friend Pete Dufourny, who faithfully cooked the pancakes for this supper year after year. We carry on this tradition in his memory, grateful for the joy and service he shared with us.
We are asking for your support in three essential ways:
Volunteer your time.
We need helping hands before, during, and after the supper. Shifts are set up to make volunteering easy, but if you can’t commit to a complete shift, that’s perfectly okay—we are happy to work with your availability. Every bit of help truly makes a difference.
Could you offer financial support?
Donations toward food and supplies help make this event possible and ensure that the funds raised can be directed directly to St. Mary’s Guild and its work.
Come and enjoy the supper!
Even if you volunteer, please plan to enjoy the meal. We are scheduling enough volunteers so you can sit, relax, and spend time with your friends and family when they arrive.
This is a fantastic way to serve, connect, and celebrate together as a church community. Sign-up information will be available soon.
Thank you for supporting St. Mary’s Guild and for helping make this special evening a success.
We look forward to seeing you on Shrove Tuesday! 🥞
