Rabbi Eli Goorevitch was born and raised in California, growing up in neighboring Laguna Beach. He graduated from the Central Lubavitch Yeshiva in Brooklyn NY and received his Rabbinical ordination in Los Angeles.
Rabbi Eli has been involved in Jewish outreach all his life, serving in communities as far as Buenos Aires, Argentina, Israel & Chicago, to name a few. Before moving back to Southern CA, he and his wife Faygie and their daughter Rivka resided in Brooklyn NY.
Faygie, a proud Southern girl, grew up in Atlanta, GA, her parents serve as the local Rabbi and Rebbetzin of the Jewish community in Peachtree City, GA. Faygie graduated from the well-known Ohel Chana Seminary of Australia and has participated in and spearheaded various outreach programs in different communities. She is very proud of the CTeen Programs she initiated and administrated in Chandler, Arizona and looks forward to working with Youth and Teens in Dana Point.
The Goorevitch's moved to Dana Point to establish the city's first and only Jewish Center. Their combined experience along with their devotion to bringing the warm and positive message of Judaism to every Jew, is surely an asset to the Jewish community.
