Sholom uBrocho:

I received your letter of the 8th of Tammuz, with the Pidyon, which will be read at the holy resting place.

I was pleased to note that you are joining the staff of Gan Yisroel. As you know, the aim and purpose of the Camp is to instill the love and awe of G-d and the practice of Torah and Mitzvoth among the campers. I hope you and your colleagues will be successful in this, and that your influence will last the campers throughout the year.

No doubt you participated in a Chag haGeulo celebration and derived much inspiration from it.

With blessing,

By Nissan Mindel
