By the Grace of G-dRosh Chodesh Marcheshvan, 5742Brooklyn, N.Y
Mr. . . .
Greeting and Blessing:
This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter with enclosures.
Many thanks for the good news it contained about your advancement in Yiddishkeit in your activities to spread and strengthen Torah Yiddishkeit in your community. May G-d grant that you should continue in this direction, in accordance with the saying of our Sages that, "One who has 100 desires 200,” meaning that ambition grows with achievement. And there is the assurance that when a Jew is firmly resolved to do the right thing, he or she receives aid from On High. Especially as you have seen hatzlocho in the past, and now a particularly conspicuous sign of hatzlocho by being the "Zocho b’Gorol" from South Africa, and have had the zechus of representing all participants here during the festivals of the auspicious month of Tishrei.
I am confident that you will convey to all the participants the inspiration which you gained here as their representative, as it will be reflected in your own everyday life in actual deed, in accordance with the rule of our Sages that "action is the essential thing.”
Wishing you hatzlocho in all above,
With blessing,
