Anshe Sfard is an Orthodox congregation founded in the early 1920s. The synagogue is located in what used to be the Jewish area of New Orleans, and is the only synagogue within reasonable walking distance of the CBD/Convention Center area. On a regular basis Anshe Sfard hosts many tourist and convention goers. The synagogue building has recently been awarded landmark status. Anshe Sfard currently offers services on Saturday mornings. It also offers a Cheder religious school program. If you have any questions regarding the Cheder, please contact Ms. Lonnie Schaffer at lonnie.s@earthlink.com.
