Mrs. Elishava, may she live.

Shalom u'Vrachah!

With pleasure I received her letter from the 15th of Elul, in which she writes that she directs a Chabad preschool in Lod, which is part of the Oholei Yosef Yitzchok Lubavitch network in our holy land, may it be rebuilt and established speedily in our days through our righteous Moshiach.

At an auspicious time, you and also the children of the kindergarten will be mentioned at the holy resting place of my revered father-in-law, the Rebbe, of blessed memory—may his merit protect us—for outstanding success in all matters of the kindergarten that bears his name.

And according to our Sages' saying that "perhaps it is a significant matter," certainly his merit will protect the children of the kindergarten, the teacher, and the administration in all matters of the kindergarten and also in all their personal affairs.

The greatness of the reward is understood from the great pleasure caused to the Holy One Blessed be He by this, as my revered father-in-law, the Rebbe, said in the name of the Baal Shem Tov: that G‑d's love for each and every Jew is far greater than that of elderly parents for their only child born to them in their old age.

With blessings for success and for a good inscription and sealing for each one and their families. Mrs. Elishava: Bakhar, Petach Tikvah.

Summary
