New Mikvah Inaugurated in Alpharetta, Georgia
ALPHARETTA, GA [CHI] — Since the town was founded the Jewish community has been lacking in something the Talmud says is a necessity: a Mikvah. Yesterday, June 29th, Rabbi Hirshy and Rashi Minkowicz of Chabad of Alpharetta opened their state of the art Mikvah and pool dedicated to the Rebbe and holding the name, “Mei Menachem.”

Hundreds toured the facilities. Watching in awe as they we’re lead from room to room. The facilities include: kiddies pool, equipped with all the latest gadgets; 2000 square foot heated pool; men’s Mikvah and shower room; women’s Mikvah, including lounge, and kallah preparation room; also a third Mikvah specially for vessels.
The crowd was addressed by many including the head Shliach of Georgia Rabbi Yossi New, Crown Heights’s own Rabbi Lima Minkowicz and Rabbi Yossie Shemtov from Tucson, AZ. This great accomplishment came with the help of many, and some were acknowledged with beautiful awards.
One could not help but be inspired by these unbelievable Shluchim who make everything look as if it is so easy. The grand ribbon cutting comes only a day before the first day of day camp where they are expecting over 150 kids in the first week. For this the Shluchim brought down 25 staff members.
