Brooklyn

To Mrs. Chaya (see note 1),

Blessings and greetings,

You write to me (see note 2) about your work among the women. It is quite obvious that you must work in both circles — both among those who know practically nothing about Yiddishkeit* and among those whose knowledge is still insufficient.

It is clear that one does not act in an identical manner in these two circles. Nevertheless, as your meetings with these women progress, you will be able to refine the approach that should be adopted toward them (see note 3).

You have given an accurate answer to several of the questions that were posed to you, as reported in your letter. I therefore hope that you will continue to succeed in the future. It would be advisable, however, to adopt the following arrangement, which exists in various circles: questions raised at one meeting will be answered at the following meeting. In this way, you will have the opportunity to delve deeper into these questions and everything related to them.

I am enclosing a copy of my letter addressed to all, on the occasion of the meeting of Nshei* and Bnos* Chabad* that took place here. You will surely be able to use its content for your work.

With my blessing,

For the Rebbe shlita*,

the secretary,
