SUMMER
Dear Family
Hope everyone is well.
Mazal tov to Hirshy and Mariasha on their Anniversary tomorrow.
And another Anniversary, their first, Mazal Tov to Mendel and Freida. Wow it seems like more than 1 year ago!
Mazal Tov to Zalmy on his upcoming Birthday next week.
This is the time of year when School and College results start to appear, and we all go on holiday or Summer Camps, in some way or another.
Shmuel is running his Summer Camp in California, Chava is Head Counsellor in Pennsylvania Camp, I know Dovi is going on a sleep over Camp, and Batsheva is visiting Baty in Sydney etc.
Enjoy!!
Connected to the Holiday period, I saw a short Vort from the Rebbe about this as follows:
When people notified The Rebbe of their vacation plans, The Rebbe would often give a bracha that it should bring about the desired result ie strengthening the body.
As the Rebbe Rashab expressed it 'How precious is the Jewish body, for which so much Torah was given.'
At the same time, care must be taken, that one does not arrive at a situation in which the strength of the body weakens the Neshama. - Igros kodesh.
Wishing everyone a Gut Shabbos and a Gut Summer.
