"SHROVE TUESDAY" on SUNDAY Join us on Sunday February 11th at 11:30 am & 4:45 pm for our traditional pancake supper! Shrove Tuesday is the day before Lent starts on Ash Wednesday. The name Shrove comes from the old middle English word 'Shriven' meaning to go to confession to say sorry for the wrong things you've done. Lent always starts on a Wednesday, so people went to confession the day before. Shrove Tuesday was the last opportunity to use up eggs and fats before embarking on the Lenten fast and pancakes were the perfect way of using up these ingredients.

Come admire all the Valentines outreach bags they have made as part of their now legendary Children's Apple Ministry! Lent is a time to put much aside to focus on listening to God like Jesus, seeing others through the eyes of Jesus, and loving all with the compassion of Jesus. In that spirit, these outreach bags crafted by the children and filled with goodies and a hand-decorated heart cookie are going to the Glen Cove Senior Center Valentines Luncheon, The Glen Cove Men's Shelter & Soup Kitchen, The Finley Middle School Food Pantry.
