Igrot Kodesh · Letter 9271

By the grace of Hashem,

Eve of the holy Shabbat*,
Parshat Bo* 5727,
Brooklyn, New York,

To all participants in the twenty-seventh annual dinner of the central Yeshivot Tom'chei Temimim* Lubavitch*, may Hashem grant you long life,

I greet and bless you,

I convey herewith my greetings and blessing to the important community leaders, the guests of honor, and all the participants in the annual celebration of the central Yeshivot Tom'chei Temimim Lubavitch. This year, it takes place on the first day of a week that carries a particular significance for Lubavitch institutions — and therefore also for all friends and supporters of Lubavitch Yeshiva. It is, indeed, the week of the Hilula* of my father-in-law, the Rebbe…

I hope that each and every participant, and all friends of Lubavitch Yeshiva in general, will make a special effort to ensure that the goal of this dinner is fully achieved. Without doubt, the merit of the one whose Hilula we are celebrating — the founder of the Yeshiva — will protect each person and will enable them to be blessed by our Father in Heaven, from His full, open, holy, and generous hand, both materially and spiritually. With my respects, my blessing for considerable success, and for bringing me good news,

M. Schneerson
