Anshei Sfard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anshei Sfard, officially affiliated with the Orthodox Union (OU), is the only Orthodox synagogue in Kentucky, located in Louisville. The synagogue was founded by a small group of Jews in 1893. It provides the Louisville community Shabbat and Yom Tov services, events, a kosher kitchen, and a mikveh.

The Rabbi, Avrohom Litvin, is the leader of the synagogue's events, the dean of Gan Torah ("Torah Academy") school, Louisville's Kashruth administrator, and Kentucky's Regional Director of Chabad.[1]

Despite the name, the congregation's mode of worship is Ashkenazic, not Sephardic.
