Exciting news!

After a preliminary meeting a couple of weeks ago, in December the Chevra is beginning talks in earnest with the local Jewish Federation office to jointly work on a Miqvah and Dayschool project, with a "Red Tent" Room or Small Sanctuary for Jewish Renewal style services.

This will be a big undertaking for the community. There hasn't been a community Miqvah here since the 80s, when the old downtown synagogue was replaced by the newer one in the subburbs.

A dayschool facility is needed because in this red state, christianity is going to be forced down kid's throats in public schools. Families need options.

Stay tuned!

Through the Rising Tide Network, Mayyim Hayyim serves as a leader, source of inspiration, and sacred partner for new and emerging mikva'ot across North America, including the new mikveh in Waterville, Maine. Together, we are fulfilling the vision of making mikveh more open and accessible for all who seek to mark meaningful transitions in their lives.

At a time when the world feels heavy with loss and uncertainty, we are proud that Mayyim Hayyim and our network members are generating possibilities for hope and renewal.

Warmly,
Julie Childers, CEO
