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.

What Anawim Community Means To Me 2



Has someone shown you kindness when you needed it most? 


With Anawim here even at the first Steve and his family has helped me get off the streets, off the heroin and drinking for at least 2 1/2 years and I don't want Diane to be left out she helped just with our talks and her love not sure I would have made it when Mom passed without you guys. Love you!
