By the Grace of G-d28th of Shevat, 5725Brooklyn, N.Y.

Blessing and Greeting:

Thank you very much for your letters, in which you write about the activities of the Neshei Chabad of Manchester. May G-d grant that all the activities should expand and go from strength to strength.

As we are reading this week the Sidrah of Terumah, about the building of the Sanctuary, it is well to remember that the women were the first to contribute towards this holy cause, and were an inspiration even to the men. The lesson and message of this is obvious. Indeed we see constantly how the Jewish woman can be an inspiration to her husband in the better observances of all matters of Torah and Mitzvoth, and in the area of dedicated work, to strengthen the light and warmth of the Torah and Mitzvoth to the utmost of her influence.

With blessing

By Nissan Mindel
