Here is Anawim's greenhouse. As you can see, we still have a long way to go before we are ready to plant. But Jeff Strong is working on it. If you'd like to help him with supplies or work, please contact us.
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.

Let It Grow, Let It Grow, Let It Grow
Here is a row of our veggie garden. This year, we have planted tomatoes, squash and peppers, and we will be planting more. Look at that rich soil! This food will go to the homeless and families that find produce to be too costly.

Community Garden
These mounds of grass clippings, wood chips and sod are the beginnings of our community garden. Now we have tomatoes, peppers, and other veggies planted. Look for more pics to come!
