CORE VALUES & MISSION

GET INVOLVED

This is Who We Are

Outreached Arms™ is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that mobilizes volunteers to live and spread the Word of God through service to others. Our mission is to serve food to the hungry, build relationships that inspire the despaired, provide basic necessities and services for the poor, and teach and exemplify the message of Jesus Christ to all. Founded in 2010 through the desire of a family to serve together, Outreached Arms™ is about unity in service while accomplishing the Great Commission. We are blessed abundantly as we see Lives Changed.

This is What We Do

Outreached Arms™ partners with the First Presbyterian Church of Pittsburgh to serve meals to Pittsburgh's inner-city homeless and working poor. Many lead very difficult lives - struggling to find a safe, warm place to gather or to enjoy a healthy meal. Every Tuesday night, we provide hot food, fellowship, and friendship. Most importantly, we share the love of Jesus Christ. We are always seeking volunteers to join us for an evening with our guests. Serve food or drinks, help with setup or cleanup, or minister to spiritual needs through laughter and good conversation. Please click below to learn how you can get involved.

Outreached Arms provides hope to Pittsburgh’s inner city homeless and working poor by serving warm meals, nurturing relationships, meeting essential needs, and sharing the message of Jesus Christ.

FOUR CORNERSTONES OF OUR MINISTRY

SERVE

There is no higher calling than service to others. Every life has value. We strive to create an environment where guests and volunteers alike experience grace, dignity, love, caring, concern, and respect.

TEACH

We teach and we learn. Sharing the Word of God builds faith, hope, and encouragement for celebrating daily life and overcoming adversities.

BUILD RELATIONSHIPS

The consistent serving of others builds respect. Respect leads to trust. Trust to relationships. And when you have strong relationships, lives begin to change.

PROVIDE

Basic necessities are just that - necessary. The minimums of food, clothing, and personal hygiene meet daily needs. From that foundation, personal advancements in housing, parenting, employment, and healthy living take root and grow.
