[stylist] Sabbath meal

[James H. "Jim" Canaday M.A. N6YR]

thanks for the detail Lori,
I did not know.  so the meal after sabbath service is a large one then?
mine was today, after my church service: sirloin slow cooked in 
crockpot with sweet onions, garlic and mushrooms, made a gravy.  ate 
over rice.
I think many american christians eat a very  hearty sunday afternoon 
or noon meal.  it also often is a focal point for the weeks 
activities with family and even friends or neighbors.
In fact, my church holds a church wide meal at least six times a year 
on the first sunday of several months, and we just go downstairs from 
the service to the meal.  this is besides the thanksgiving and 
christmas meals.

oh, this year we might have christmas eve service in july because of 
our christmas blizzard forcing the cancelation of the original 
christmas eve service.  most churches in town did the same.
