Greeting and Blessing:

This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter of the 11th of Kislev, and may G-d grant that you should have good news to report.

Especially as we have entered the auspicious and bright days of Chanukah, one of the basic messages of which is that as Jews increase the light of the Torah and Mitzvoth in their life and surroundings, HaShem increases His blessings and makes things brighter for them in all their affairs, both materially and spiritually.

May this be so also with you and yours in growing measure.

With blessing,

M. Schneerson
