The Church of the Good Shepard held their annual Pancake Supper tonight.The more than 25 year tradition is held each year on the night before Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of the church season of Lent.
The ingredients such as milk, eggs, and sugar that go into pancakes were traditionally banned during Lent when only the plainest foods were allowed.Pancakes allowed households to use up these ingredients on Mardi Gras before the Lenten fast began.
