By the Grace of G-d10th of Tammuz, 5739Brooklyn, N. Y.

Blessing and Greeting:

I am in receipt of your letter of the 2nd of Tammuz, and many thanks for the good news it contained, especially about your good work in behalf of the immigrants from behind the Iron Curtain. And although you write that the work sometimes leaves you exhausted, it surely comes under the category of those about whom it is written, ”Those who trust in G-d shall renew their strength." Moreover, the Zechus of this vital work will surely widen the channels to receive G-d’s blessings for the fulfillment of your heart’s desires for good in all the matters about which you wrote in this letter, and in your previous correspondence.

The present days leading to the Chag HaGeulo on the 12-13th of Tammuz, of my father-in-law of saintly memory, are particularly auspicious for the above. No doubt you are familiar with the historic significance of this anniversary and its implications for all of us everywhere, including the assurance that all who continue his work will be blessed with Hatzlocho.

Wishing you Hatzlocho in all above, and an inspiring Chag HaGeulo,

With blessing,

M. Schneerson
