8747 —עידוד לבנות חב"ד על צדקה וחיים לפי תורת אדמו"ר הזקן

B"H, Eve of 24 Teves, 5724, Brooklyn.

Yom Hilula of our Alter Rebbe.

Bnos Chabad may they live.

Shalom u'Vrachah!

I was pleased to hear about your good decision, which you promptly put into action, donating your ninth to the Keren HaKan fund. Especially since this act further strengthens the hope and confidence that you will do what is up to you to follow the paths taught by the Alter Rebbe in Tanya Kadisha, as explained in his books and discourses, and elaborated upon in the talks and discourses of our Rebbeim—of blessed memory—Nesi'im of Chabad. This includes conducting yourselves in daily life according to these teachings and fulfilling the instruction to always increase in all these matters and ascend in holiness.

The Torah's command itself also gives strength and assistance. May it be G‑d's will that this hope be fulfilled completely, and may each one of you be a true source of nachas ruach—Chassidic satisfaction—for your parents. May each one of you be a living example for all Jewish girls wherever they are. This too is one of the main ways to spread the wellsprings outward.

With blessings for success in all the above with health, joy, and gladness of heart,

M. Schneersohn
