Dartmouth North Christian Food Bank

Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish partners with Life Branch Baptist Church to operate the Dartmouth North Christian Food Bank at 27 Farrell Street.

The food bank is open to our clients every Thursday, from 9:30-12:00.

Shelter Supports

In partnership with the Archdiocese, we are home to two crisis shelter units housed at Saint Anthony Hall at 27 Farrell St.

Since 2020, Saint Anthony has also been home to the House of Hope, a transitional housing option for men who are recovering from addiction. Since 2025, we have partnered with Souls Harbour Rescue Mission on this initiative.

Beyond the Bread

Beyond the Bread has been serving meals to the residents of three facilities that support reintegration into society since 2020. They provide take-away meals during Christmas and Easter, as well as an in-person BBQ during the summer.

Social Outreach

Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish places a strong emphasis on serving the poor in our community. Our Saint Anthony location in North Dartmouth serves as a hub for social outreach, offering programs like the Dartmouth North Christian Food Bank and the House of Hope.

For more information on any of our social outreach efforts, or to serve with us, please contact our Parish Life Director Brandon Rabideau at brandon@olgdartmouth.ca

Our Lady's Pantry

Our Lady's Pantry provides non-perishable food and pantry supplies to people and families in need. The pantry is open on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month from 10am-12pm at Saint Peter embodying our commitment to serve the community and address food insecurity in Dartmouth.

Feeding Others of Dartmouth (FOOD)

Members of our parish make meals three times a month for Feeding Others of Dartmouth (F.O.O.D.) to support Margaret's House, a local charity, that feeds those who are in need. Our parish makes over 900 meals a month, cooking twice a month on a Tuesday and once a month on Friday.
