This past Tuesday, Harav Yirmiyahu Katz formally certified that the Tuchman Family Mikvah is now kosher and approved for use. The ritual bath was then filled. As we celebrate the 36th anniversary of The Hampton Synagogue, the completion of the Tuchman Family Mikvah celebrates a historic milestone for our congregation.
Rabbi Marc Schneier noted, “The completion of a mikvah enjoys a special preeminence in Judaism, greater than the building of a synagogue, school, or community center.” The Tuchman Family Mikvah is a testament to the magnanimous generosity of Hampton Synagogue Honorary President Morris “Moish” & Judy Tuchman, whose vision, tenacity, attention to detail, and perseverance saw the project through from its inception.
We thank as well mikvah facility benefactors, Edy & Howard Blady and Terri & Andrew Herenstein, and our gracious mezuzah donors. The iconic Robert Indiana AHAVA sculpture, a landmark gift of Gillian & Simon Salama-Caro situated just outside the mikvah, both elevates the prestige of The Hampton Synagogue and beautifully encapsulates the values our mikvah represents.
A special appreciation to the members of the Daniella Moffson Women’s Committee, Edy Blady, Chair, for their dedication and guidance. The Tuchman Family Mikvah will be open for use as of Monday, May 18. For more information and scheduling appointments, please call 631-318-0902.
