Youth Serve Annual Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper

The annual Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper is served Tuesday, Feb. 28, 4:30 to 7 p.m. at Christ Episcopal Church, 220 40th Street NE in the Parish Hall downstairs. Elevator assistance is available at the East entrance. Cost for the dinner is $5 for adults, $3 for children 12 and under, or $15 for a family. The all-you-can-eat meal features pancakes, regular or blueberry, with butter and syrup, sausage, apple sauce, juice, milk and coffee.

All proceeds from the dinner support the Journey to Adulthood, a youth ministries program for young people beginning in seventh grade and continuing through high school. The supper is prepared and served by the youth of the parish as a fund-raiser for mission trips, and spiritual journeys such as pilgrimages throughout the United States.

According to Beth Tygart, organizer of the event, “The youth look forward to working on Shrove Tuesday, and members of the congregation invite their neighbors and friends to an evening of fun, fellowship and great food. Also, as in recent years, we will be delivering the supper meal to our homebound members.”
