Dear Dad
Freshers week has been great.
I have joined the Fencing club and the Rugby club (they have a tour in Barbados this summer!) Joey, my room mate in halls is a Christian. He invited me to his Christian Union meeting yesterday. I went along not wanting to offend but have come back very upset. They celebrated their communion service "only for those who are Christians", exclusive or what!
What really got me was that they have copied elements of our Passover. How dare they take the heart of our faith and muck about with it. Their explanation of how their Jesus was the one who fulfilled the Passover is quite difficult to take. Could you talk to Rabbi Simeon and get him to send me an email explaining our Passover and its history, then I can set them all straight.
See you in two weeks,
David

Dear Son,
The Rabbi visited last Tuesday and I showed him your email. He wants to know why you weren't paying attention in your lessons at the synagogue! Mind you he was delighted to have the opportunity to explain again. His notes are attached.
Hope you are still speaking to your room mate. Rabbi's notes should help.
Shalom,
Dad
