Linksfield shul gets modern, meaningful mikvah
OWN CORRESPONDENT
Sponsored by Dan and Melanie Saltzman and named in honour of their grandmothers, the mikvah was built with the intention of serving women in the area who are looking for a deeply spiritual yet modern mikvah experience. It will also serve as an educational tool for pupils on the KDL campus, helping to make the experience relatable and meaningful.
At the opening, the women were treated to a lecture by well-known author and educator Richard Sutton titled, “From surviving to thriving”.
Architects Asher Marcus and Mandy Shindler explained the design concepts behind the mikvah, and a short film was shown on what it means to women in the community. Brian Weinberg, who facilitated the project on behalf of the shul thanked the donors, and all those involved in making the project happen, and Dan Saltzman spoke about their vision and passion for the project.
