OUR MIKVAH
We are taught that Mikvah is such a critical component of Jewish life, that a Mikvah should be built even before a community builds a synagogue or buys a Torah.
​
The Columbus Community Mikvah is:
-
Centrally located.
-
A beautiful space with a spa-like environment.
-
A space that encourages a spiritual experience.
-
Secure and safe.
-
Housed in a freestanding building.
-
Discreet and dignified.
-
Accessible to women and men with physical disabilities.
-
Furnished with updated equipment, including a filtration system ensuring the utmost cleanliness of the pools and high standards of hygiene.
-
Designed with private, spacious changing rooms and separate immersion pools for women and men as well as one for utensils.
-
Supported by a strong group of volunteers, Mikvah members, individuals, and synagogues.
​
COMMUNAL IMPACT
Maintaining a modern, secure Mikvah with a spa-like atmosphere that is open and inclusive to the entire Jewish community is of the utmost importance.
-
We hope to increase support and usage of the Mikvah through educational and outreach programming throughout Columbus and Mid-Ohio.
-
Converts' first experiential moment within Judaism will be positive and spiritually uplifting.
-
Recognizing that accessibility is not only a structural concern, but also impacts our ability to be a truly inclusive community, the Mikvah is fully accessible.
