Open Arms Community Church of Bradford will hand out blankets, socks, gloves and other winter items beginning at 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 30, at Veterans Square in downtown Bradford.
The effort is part of Poverty Awareness Month.
“It is our goal to show the love of Jesus in practical ways and demonstrate His grace that we've not earned nor deserved, but He gives it to us anyway,” said Pastor Mike McAvoy. “The intention is that when you experience the goodness of God, you'll realize how much He loves you and has pursued you and you will want to love and pursue Him back.”
Each month Open Arms Community Church organizes outreach events in the Bradford area as a way to bless the community.
