HMI Atlanta: Havdalah at MACoM
February 25, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm EST
The Metro Atlanta Community Mikvah (MACoM) is marking their seventh year here in Atlanta, and HMI is excited for the opportunity to help them celebrate with this special evening of music, friendship, learning, and hot (adult) beverages. Bundle up and gather ‘round the bonfire as we separate Shabbat from the week ahead with an HMI community Havdalah ceremony!
What is a mikvah? It’s a special pool of living waters (natural waters from a flowing source like fresh spring water, rainwater, or even melted snow) that is used for Jewish ritual immersion, and is often used as a way to acknowledge a major life transition.
HMI Atlanta alum Elisa Horowitz recently shared her MACoM mikvah experience with us. Here’s her story in case you missed it!
