COVID-19 doesn’t stop annual Lenten fish frys

Volunteers fill orders for fish dinners for carry-out on the first Friday of Lent, Feb. 19, 2021, at St. Symphorosa Parish, 6135 S. Austin Ave. While many parishes cancelled their fish frys this year because of the pandemic, others switched to offering take-out meals. (Karen Callaway/Chicago Catholic)
