Easter Breakfast

March 14, 2011 by

Trinity’s Easter breakfast will follow the sunrise service, and we’re looking for a few good helpers! There will be a sign-up sheet on the LWML bulletin board for those who would like to bring a dish to share. The LWML will also accept donations toward the purchase of any additional items that no one has volunteered to bring.

The Sunday School Easter pageant will be at 10:45, so we’re going to need lots of help with the clean-up. Many hands make light work, as they say.

Email Tom if you can help. Thanks!

Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper

March 7, 2011 by

Tuesday is Shrove Tuesday, the day before the beginning of Lent. We’ll be observing Shrove Tuesday with our annual pancake supper at Trinity, which begins at 5:30 p.m. and ends at 7:00.

The tradition of the pancake supper (some cultures eat doughnuts) began because making pancakes is a great way to use up ingredients like eggs, milk, and sugar before the Lenten fast. Whether you fast during Lent or not, it’s a great way to observe the beginning of the time of reflection that is Lent.

Note: if you can help set up before the supper—or clean up after—. Set up will begin at 3:30 p.m.
