By the Grace of G-d Erev 15th of Av, 5738 Brooklyn, N. Y.
To the Campers - Boys/Girls
Lubavitch Summer Day Camp
28 Highwood Gardens
Clayhall, Ilford, Essex
Greeting and Blessing:
I was pleased to receive your individual letters. May G-d fulfil your hearts’ desires for good. Especially to take with you from the Camp an additional measure of health and strength in body and soul, through advancement in the daily conduct in accordance with the Torah and Mitzvos, which are "our life and the length of our days" - as befits Jewish children.
May this be permeated also with the spirit of the 15th of Av (the conclusion and culmination of your Camping experience), of which our Sages say: "as from this day everyone who increases one's efforts in Torah and Mitzvos, receives increased Divine blessings," - as explained more fully in the message of Monday, which, hopefully, has been conveyed to you.
With blessing for Hatzlocho in all above,
MENACHEM SCHNEERSON
