Opportunities for Selfless Service

Serving Our Community

Everybody Eats – Free Community Meal

A major ministry of our parish since 2009. a free meal is offered to all who walk in the door.

Lenten Fasting Chain

Many parish members participate in our Lenten Fasting Chain, during which each parishioner has the opportunity to fast for a day. They then pass the fast on to the next person in the chain. The money which they would have spent on food for a day is donated to Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry.

Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry

Parishioners are encouraged to bring non-perishable food each Sunday as part of our weekly offering. These essentials are taken to Loaves & Fishes’ market at 137 Downeast Highway for distribution to the 2,000+ Hancock County families the pantry serves. St. Dunstan’s is one of several churches and organizations who participate in this spiritual practice. To volunteer at the pantry, visit loavesandfishesellsworth.org/volunteer.

Emmaus Homeless Shelter

St Dunstan’s contributes monthly to the support of this shelter. Emmaus offers some heating and housing support for families in profound need. The church also participates in an Emmaus program to provide Christmas gifts to local children in need.
