"' ' -----DRAFT Dear Rabbi ------- The Steering Committee of the Rabbinical Advisory Council would be greatly pleased to have you participate in the second Rabbinical Study Mission to Israel, which will leave New York January 4 and will return January 13, 1970. As you know, a letter announcing the Mission was sent to each of our colleagues in the American Rabbinate. Their response was both gratifying and overwhelming. Sadly, because of the capacity of the aircraft and a limitation of funds, we are able to invite only 130 men to participate in this program. Let me remind you that the total cost from New York to Israel and return, including all accommodations there, is $765 , one- half of which will be borne by the Rabbinical Advisory Council of the United Jewish Appeal. The other half ($382 . 50) , plus whatever expenses are involved in coming to New York to make the flight, are the responsibility of each participant. If you would like, I would be happy to contact the president of your congregation to inform him of the honor involved in your selection and to urge his help in financing the balance. In any case, I must ask that your acce.ptance of a role in the Rabbinical Mission be made by Decem- ber 1 and that it be accompanied by a check for $382 . 50 made payable to the United Jewish Appeal . One of the things we hope to accomplish with our Rabbinical Mission is the involvement of those who participate in their respective community' s Campaign. I will be contacting the executive directors of all of the Federations involved to alert them to their rabbis' participation and to begin to plan the specifics of our involvement in the Campaign. One of -; •-. -.. .. the first things that we would like to arrange is coverage by the local media upon your return. Again let me congratulate you on being selected to participate in this crucial Study Mission and to wish you Kol Tov . With kindest personal regards, I am Cordially yours , Rabbi Earl A.
