Practical
Church position from Wikivoyage. Shopping in Siquijor town is small-scale: OpenStreetMap maps the public market (Public Market Building No. 2 on F. Atad Street, 9.2135N 123.5133E), Emwin's Store, Save 'N Earn, Jayvee Marketing, Julie's and St. Francis bakeshops, and a Petron station by the pier. Wikivoyage lists Prince Hypermart, the island's main supermarket, in Larena town (8am-8pm, 2017; see 'Larena Public Market and Prince Hypermart (Siquijor)'), a Metrobank ATM on the main road (Visa and Mastercard) and Generika Drug Store on the National Highway. For a big provision, Dumaguete is 40-50 minutes by fast ferry. Siquijor was founded as the island's first municipality and parish in 1783 (Wikipedia). Buy fresh food early.
