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.

Prayer and Praise


Art by Yvan Strong

~Sanctuary is approved by the Gresham Fire Department to host overnight shelters under certain severe weather conditions. Praise God! We've been praying and working hard for this!

~We will be hosting meetings to teach skills for hosting the homeless in ones church in the next month, as well as a community meeting for those who live around our Gresham facility. Pray that we would be able to increase peace for the homeless.

~Pray for Anawim's financial situation which is reaching emergency levels.

~Pray for two couples who were able to get off the street, now it looks like they will lose their apartments. Pray that they will be able to work through what issues they have and stay off the street.
