Congregation Dorshei Emet, Reconstructionist synagogue in Hampstead, Quebec, Canada

Congregation Dorshei Emet is a synagogue featuring a rectangular design with stained glass windows brought from its original building. Inside, it contains a social hall, library, and administrative offices supporting community activities.

The congregation was founded in 1960 and built its first building in 1967. In 2003, it moved to a larger facility to accommodate the growing community.

The Emet Gallery inside displays photography and multimedia works that show artistic expressions from Jewish perspectives. You can see pieces created by artists exploring themes related to Jewish identity and experience.

The synagogue offers spaces for religious services, educational programs, social gatherings, and community events. Visitors should check in advance about public events or visiting times to see the building and galleries.

In 2009, a scribe was commissioned to write a new Torah scroll for the synagogue, marking a special moment for the community. This work represented both respect for traditional Jewish craftsmanship and openness to contemporary approaches.
