How does the Orthodox church celebrate Shrove Tuesday?

Peace be with you, In the Coptic Orthodox Church, Lent begins on a Monday as it is 55 days long so we have no such Tuesday sorry. Regarding the length of the fast, there are 7 days for the fast of Holoferns, 40 days for the regular Lent, 7 days prior to the Lord's Passion plus Bright Saturday which is the only Sabbath Orthodox Christians are permitted to fast on. Can't speak for other jurisdictions sorry however believe the Greeks have something called "Meat Faire" and another for cheese but you would have to ask them sorry.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
