Parish Pantry Mission & Services
Santa Barbara Catholic Church is a faith-filled and life-giving community… cultivating a spirit of compassion and awakening in us the call to serve. Parishioners demonstrate brotherly love, in part, by supporting two parish pantries.
- The Food Pantry is a membership charity serving needy individuals & families in Dededo and proffers food & hygienic supplies.
- The Baby Jesus Pantry is designed to help homeless and/or unemployed mothers provide their newborn and infant children with basic necessities until they can qualify for membership in the parish’s food pantry. Basic necessities include a one-month supply of Luvs disposable diapers for newborns, ALVABABY cloth diapers for infants, and baby formula.
The pantries are financed by sponsorships and donations from parishioners, clergy members, non-parishioners & businesses. The schema of pantry offerings includes:
- STARCHES: Guam Bakery bread; Jasmin rice; Maruchan ramen; Kellogg cereals
- PROTEINS: Tulip luncheon meat; Ox & Palm corned beef; Century tuna; Ligo sardines; Vienna sausage; peanut butter
- MILK & WATER: Anchor full cream & low-fat milk (250 ml); Anchor full cream & low-fat milk (quart); bottled water
- HYGIENIC SUPPLIES: Body soap; laundry soap; toothbrushes, toothpaste; face masks; hand sanitizers; butane
PANTRY HOURS

Fr. Ken is usually in the pantry at 8:30AM to accept donations and deliveries.
Peace be with you.
