Content
A visit to the mikveh is an important part of an Introduction to Judaism or Pathways to Judaism course. We welcome participants to visit Mayyim Hayyim to learn about how mikveh is part of Jewish life in general and the conversion experience in particular.
This program includes essential elements from Introduction to Mikveh with a focus on the experience of conversion at the mikveh. Teachers discuss the day of conversion, concerns, answer questions and introduce the idea of immersion as a lifecycle ritual that can be revisited at other moments of transition
