The council is working with the New Life Church on Brumby Wood Lane in Scunthorpe to provide a place for homeless people to stay overnight during the winter cold.
The church will be open three nights this week, plus extra nights if the weather is classed as severe.
The church provides a warm, safe place to sleep. Light meals and hot drinks are available, along with a change of clothes and hygiene products.
