In 2019, then Interim Rector, Fr. Cherian Pulimootil began a ministry in partnership with the Yuma Community Food Bank. Every other Saturday, clients from all over Yuma county come to St. Paul's for food. The reasons for food insecurity are manifold: family breakups, lost hours or unimployment, disability, and unexpected expenses are just a few. Our ministry has two sides, an estension of the the Yuma Community Food Bank and our own St. Paul's Food Pantry
If you, or someone you know are experiencing food insecurity, we invite you to the Father Cherian Food Pantry. We will ask for a government issued ID if you wish to receive food provided by the government. If you do not have an ID, we are happy to supply for you out of our own parish pantry. No person is ever turned away!
