By the Grace of G-d
Rosh Chodesh Kislev, 5740. Brooklyn, N.Y.

Brooklyn, N. Y.
Greeting and Blessing:
Your letter of the 18th of Elul reached me with considerable delay, and may G-d grant the fulfillment of your heart’s desires for good in the matters about which you wrote.
It is surely unnecessary to emphasize to you at length that inasmuch as all blessings come from G-d, and the channel to receive them is through the everyday life and conduct in accordance with His Will, every additional effort in matters of Torah and Mitzvoth widens the channels to receive G-d’s blessings in all needs.
Since, as you write, you have completed the program of School Psychology, and have been working with and helping also Jewish children, and you are surely showing them a living example of confidence and strength which a Jew draws from the Torah and Mitzvoth – continue it החלצהב.
Now that we have entered the auspicious month of Kislev, highlighted by Chanukah, which we celebrate by lighting the Chanukah lights in growing numbers from day to day, you surely know that the Chanukah lights symbolize the light of the Torah and Mitzvoth, and remind us that a Jew must always endeavor to intensify and spread this light in himself and all around him.
May G-d grant that you should have good news to report in all above.
With blessing,
M. Schneerson
