About the Christian Celebration of Shrove Tuesday
Religion
Ends: Feb 25, 2020
DESCRIPTION:
Shrove Tuesday (aka Pancake Day, Fat Tuesday), was originally a day of repentance and reflection (1 Corinthians 9:27) marking the end of the season of Epiphany and the upcoming season of Lent. It is part of the Carnaval celebration and the final day of debauchery, festivities and merry-making before 40 days of sacrifice and fasting begin.
During the Middle Ages and prior it was prohibited for Christians to eat meats, fats, eggs, milk, and fish during the season of Lent. Families purged the larder so nothing would spoil. In some countries this day is referred to as Pancake Day and Christians eat pancakes to mark the day. Shrove is the past tense of the verb shrive, which means to ‘present oneself for confession, penance and absolution’.
It is due to these customs Shrove Tuesday also became known as Fat Tuesday.
