In the summer of 2007, as a young family of four filled with motivation and idealism, we moved to Wilmington, NC to establish a Chabad House. Our move was inspired by the vision of the Lubavitcher Rebbe: to connect with every single Jew, regardless of knowledge, background, or affiliation. Our goal was to serve the needs of the Jewish community in Southeastern NC. We quickly discovered that we had arrived in a beautiful place—blessed with a warm community, stunning beaches, a vibrant downtown, and a growing region full of promise. The future of Jewish life here looked bright indeed. Very soon, it became clear that the community needed a central Jewish center—a home where all the needs of a growing Jewish community could be met. The seeds of the project were planted, the vision took shape, and the concept of a Jewish Community Center was born. What we present to you now is more than just a center; it is a spiritual oasis from the hustle and bustle of life, a place of warmth, friendship, and community. Our goal is to create a peaceful, uplifting space for all.
