An Historic Accomplishment

 

The construction of the Orange County Mikvah. Rabbi Yirmiya Katz, a world renowned authority in the Laws of Mivkah construction served as our consultant, supervising the complicated process. The Mikvah has a reservoir for rain water.When the rain did not come we went to the mountains to get snow. See the Photo Gallery "Snow for the Mikvah" to see that story.

The Mikvah is open. Call for reservations.
