Our History
1997 - Founded by 5 families looking for place to celebrate their Judaism and educate their children in a liberal Jewish setting. First services held at local Ruritan Club and member homes and led by a visiting rabbinical student.
1998 - Hired student rabbi and established a home for religious school. Continued to hold services at rotating locations.
2005 - A property to purchase was identified and the congregation decided to pursue the opportunity to find a permanent home.
2007 – After a period of significant growth, BCRC moved into its first permanent congregational home in Ashburn VA.
2010 – Hired our first full-time rabbi.
2018 - Temple trip to Israel.
2022 - Began celebrating our 25th anniversary, which is still ongoing!
Today - Today, we carry on our entrepreneurial legacy with substance, vitality and vision. We now have about 120 families in our congregation and 80 children enrolled in our religious school in grades pre-K through 11.
