MACoM in the News
Mikvah immersion can be a comfortable and private ritual that is contemporary and tangible. At MACoM, ceremonies are available for traditional and non-traditional immersions, with directions to help shape, guide, personalize and maximize the mikvah experience. In addition to traditional uses, immersion in a sacred space can be a powerful personal, spiritual experience for anyone in need of healing or in a life transition. Educational offerings explore the tremendous meaning and value within the modern mikvah.
What is a mikvah?
A mikvah is a special pool of living waters that is used for Jewish ritual immersion, one of the most beautiful mitzvahs. A mikvah must contain a certain minimum quantity of water which has been gathered without being “drawn” by human hands or tools. Mikvah originated from Biblical and Rabbinic sources for ritual purification and transformation. Ritual immersion is a powerful way of connecting to yourself, to Jewish tradition, and to God. As the only inclusive, pluralist mikvah in Atlanta, we welcome you.
Why is MACoM Unique?
MACoM is the only mikvah in Atlanta open to the entire Jewish community regardless of one's affiliation, observance level, sexual orientation or capacity for physical mobility. The possibilities for traditional and modern immersions are almost limitless. Regardless of whether one is a regular user of the mikvah or has never been before, immersion in the mikvah is a way to acknowledge a life transition in a uniquely Jewish context.
