Ekoji Buddhist Temple, Buddhist temple in Fairfax Station, Virginia
The Ekoji Buddhist Temple stands as a dedicated Jodo Shinshu Buddhist center, providing religious services and education programs in English to its congregation.
Founded in 1981 initially in Springfield, Virginia, the temple relocated to a larger structure in Fairfax Station in 1998 through efforts of Rev. Kenryu Tsuji.
The temple houses Nen Daiko, a Japanese drumming ensemble that performs traditional taiko music, adding musical elements to the Buddhist practices.
Weekly services occur every Sunday at 11 AM, with both in-person and virtual attendance options available through a hybrid participation model.
The name Ekoji translates to Temple of the Gift of Light, reflecting its mission to spread Buddhist teachings through the Buddhist Churches of America network.
