By the Grace of G-d
9th of Tammuz, 5724
[June 19, 1964]
Brooklyn, N.Y.
Greeting and Blessing:
I received your letters in which you write about things that happened after your return home. May G-d grant that you should always have good news to report.
As we are only a few days away from the auspicious 12th–13th of Tammuz, the liberation of my father-in-law of saintly memory, no doubt you have made arrangements to observe these days and also organize a gathering. May G-d grant that it should be successful, and that you and every one of us should derive lasting inspiration and blessings from these auspicious days.
With blessing,
EMPHASIS ON JEWISH WOMEN

Blessing and Greeting:
I was pleased to receive your letter of June 24th, in which you report on the recent activities of the Neshei Chabad in Manchester. I was very gratified to receive the good news, and may G-d grant that the meeting will bring good results in many practical ways, in the spirit of the Neshei Chabad, and in an ever growing measure.
I trust you all know of the significance of the forthcoming 12-13th of Tammuz, the Days of Geulo of my father-in-law of saintly memory. As you know, my saintly father-in-law put particular emphasis on Jewish women in general, and Chabad women in particular insofar as their responsibilities are concerned, as well as their opportunities to strengthen and spread Yiddishkeit, not only in their own family and immediate environment, but also in more extensive way.
I trust that you and all the members of the Neshei will be inspired by the auspicious day of the 12-13th of Tammuz, which demonstrated how much even a single individual can accomplish, even in the face of the greatest obstacles, provided there is a will and determination.
And while none of us can compare to my father-in-law of saintly memory, we must also remember that the obstacles and difficulties we may be facing are almost quite insignificant by comparison with those which he faced. Furthermore, he has already trodden out the path of Mesiras Nefesh for us, which makes it easier for all who wish to follow in his footsteps, all the more so since his Zechus stands everyone in good stead.
Hoping to hear good news from you always
With blessing
