After about three weeks with the encounter with this gentleman from New York, we picked up two Chassidim at the San Diego Airport:  Rabbi Shia H. and Rabbi Avroham S. and brought them to the Centro Social Israelita in Tijuana in order that they take a look at the Mikveh we were building guiding us by information from internet.  It so happened again to be on a Wednesday when we have our special meal, and this time, the piano-player was featured.

Since we were right at meal time, one of the assistants was asked to show the two Chassidim Rabbinim, especially versed in  building Mikvaot, the Mikveh being built.

Soon, the assistant came running back, and told us ‘’the Rabbinim are undoing the Mikveh’’.  ‘’Take it easy’’, we told her, ‘’they know what they are doing.  Let them work’’.


On completing their inspection, the Chassidim said that the Mikveh that was being built was not acceptable and had to be taken out and re-done and they would instruct us on what to do and how to do it.

We were to follow their precise instructions and send them pictures of before and after and then we could continue after their approval before getting to the new phase.  They also advised us that a ‘’Preparation Room’’ was needed for the ladies’ using the facilities.

Rabbi Shia H. took charge and Rabbi Avroham S. said that he would help if anything else was needed.  Lo and behold, everything was done strictly according to their instructions which included choosing the materials and the supervision of the work to be done.,

On October 17th. Rabbi Shia H. came once again and declared the Mikveh ‘’Kosher’’.

The Inauguration of the New Mikveh is taking place on Saturday, December 09 at 8 P.M..

All the Jewish Communities are invited to participate in this unique event.  Please R.S.V.P.
