Meet Our Team.

Welcome to the Burquest Jewish Community Center, your welcoming hub in the Tri-Cities and surrounding areas! We're more than just a center; we're a warm and inclusive home for everyone. Whether you're new to the community, a long-time resident, or anywhere on your personal Jewish journey, you'll find a place for connection and growth here.

Our passionate team creates a holistic environment rooted in core Jewish values, including Tikkun Olam (repairing the world), and the vibrant spirit of Israel. Together, we celebrate the joy of Jewish holidays (Shabbat, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Hanukkah, Passover, and more) and respectfully commemorate significant Israeli dates like Yom HaShoah, Yom HaZikaron, and Yom HaAtzmaut.

We cherish the richness of Jewish culture, from the beauty of Hebrew and cherished traditions to the guiding principles of Reciprocity and kehilla (community). We also embrace the vibrancy of modern Israeli culture, fostering connections across generations and experiences.

Our goal is simple: to cultivate a strong sense of belonging through diverse and engaging programs that cater to all interests. Come discover your place within the Burquest family – we're excited to connect with you!
