Anshe Sholom B'nai Israel is a dynamic Modern Orthodox congregation located in the charming Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago

We're located steps away from the lakefront and Lincoln Park, and a few blocks from historic Wrigley Field. The area includes a mix of brownstones, brick houses, courtyard buildings, and high rises. Centrally located, ASBI is only four miles away from downtown Chicago. ASBI is not a work of any one person, but rather the expression of the faith and devotion of a diverse but Jewishly committed community confidently engaging with the modern world while retaining the standards of Orthodoxy. Rabbi Asher Lopatin is our spiritual leader, and we are the beneficiaries of his energetic leadership, forward thinking, and faithful dedication to our values.

We have a variety of activities that you may get involved in; there is something for everyone. A few examples include:

  • Hasidish Friday night with tunes written by Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, first Friday of every month
  • Children's Shabbat
  • Learning
  • Social Activities
  • Community Activities
  • All are welcomed at Anshe Sholom!
