Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper  
 Tuesday, February 21 at 6:30 p.m.

 The annual Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper happens this year on
 Tuesday, February 21.  Serving begins at 6:30 and you are invited to come
 and eat all you want:  pancakes, sausages, fresh fruit, chocolate chips and
 M&M’s, all with fresh maple and fruit syrups.  A great way to mark the end
 of the Epiphany season, and the last feast before the beginning of Lent.  
 We ask a donation of $5.00 to cover the cost of the meal, but all are welcome!
Special Happenings:

    Eleventh Annual  Winter Retreat at Koinonia  
    February 17-19

    and read a good book.  Share in the Bible Study, enjoy the
    company of others, or find some quiet time for yourself.  All this is
    possible at our Eleventh Annual Winter Retreat.  The food is great,
    and the accommodations are terrific.  Be a part of the Winter
    Weekend.  For additional information, call the office (212-246-3540)
