By the Grace of G-dErev Shabbos Kodesh Rosh Chodesh Adar Sheni 5741Brooklyn, New York

Greetings and Blessings

I was pleased to be informed of your encounter during the days of Rosh Chodesh Adar Sheni, may it be blessed with great success.

Especially as your get together is taking place in the beginning of the month whose holiday is Purim, the story of which you surely know. No doubt you also know that it was on account of the Jewish youth in those days, who followed the teachings of Mordechai and Esther and were devoted to Torah and Yiddishkeit with all their hearts, that the cruel Haman was toppled, and for the Jews there was once again "light, joy, gladness and honour."

The story of Purim shows how important it is for Jewish youth to learn Torah and do Mitzvos with ever increasing devotion, not only for their own sake, but also for the sake of all our Jewish people. For in this way, G-d helps us to get rid of all our enemies and Jews everywhere can enjoy the light of Torah and Mitzvos, and all G-ds blessings that come with the Torah and Mitzvos.

Wishing you hatzlocho in all above and a very happy Purim.

With blessings
