Anawim Christian Community is a community church made up of the homeless and the mentally ill. Our main goal is to provide for people's needs (including the need to be a disciple of Jesus) where they are at. We don't feel that a person needs to be something different before they get the help they need. Our center is in Gresham OR, which is where we lead and organize day shelters and a worship service. We also have a community house in N. Portland where housing is being provided for a few people and opportunities for community worship. We are connected to ministries in SE Portland and St. Johns, where we distribute food and clothing. And finally, through the internet, we educate people from almost every country in the world about homelessness, mental illness and the Christian response to each.

Anawim Artwork and Poetry


The Anawim folks are a talented group, but often they don't have the resources to use their talents.  Yvan Strong, our worship minister, is an artist in her own right and has established the Anawim Art Studio.  The studio is open on Wednesdays and Saturdays for the Anawim folks and people from the community at large to create art using a variety of media with Yvan to
tutor, if necessary.  In this month's newsletter we are highlighting some of the art and poetry created by Anawim folks.  If you would like to receive our newsletter, participate in the art studio, or
donate to it, please contact us at anawimcc@gmail.com
