Anshai Emeth is a Reform Jewish congregation serving the Peoria and central Illinois region. Stretching back to the mid-19th century, the congregation has a long and interesting history. For details see theHistory section of this site. Our current building, dedicated in 1967, houses both the Anshai Emeth and Agudas Achim congregations.
Anshai Emeth adopted a set of goals for the congregation in April of 2000:
- Jewish education of adults and children
- Provide an environment for prayer, the celebration of life cycle events and holidays
- Foster a supportive congregational community
- Participate and initiate social action (Tikkun Olam)
- Represent Reform Judaism to others
