By the Grace of G-d 19th of Tammuz, 5724 Brooklyn, N. Y.

Greeting and Blessing:

I recieved your letter after your departure. May G-d grant that the inspiration which you derived here on the occasion of the 12th-13th of Tammuz, should be with you throughout the year, and be reflected in your daily life in a practical way, in accordance with the ideas and ideals of the Baal HaSimcho V'HaGeulo. All the more so since you have opportunities to influence certain circles which are beyond the reach of others. It has also been explained in our holy books that when one helps another Jew to come closer to G-d and Yiddishkiet, this in itself gives the helping person a deeper insight into Yiddishkeit in general, and also is a source of Divine blessings in one's needs.

With regard to your writing about a certain person, who still needs some influence, experience has shown that it is often easier to obtain the desired results through the influence of mutual friends, rather than by the person directly concerned. Needless to say every effort should be made in this direction, inasmuch as it concerns something which is the pillar of Yiddishkeit, and the pillar of a Jewish home, all the more so as this has an influence also on children and children's children to the end of all time.

Hoping to hear good news from you

With blessing

By Nissan Mindel
