A good primate's providing religious feasts (6)

I believe the answer is:

agapes

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'religious feasts' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'a good primate's' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'primate's' becomes 'ape's' (large primate).
'a'+'g'+'apes'='AGAPES'

'providing' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for agapes that I've seen is " Love feasts".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
