The Nine Days are a time when we mourn the chillul Hashem of galus.
The final weeks of summer are the perfect time to fill that void with as much kiddush Hashem as we can.
Here are a few examples of kiddush Hashem that were shared with me:
Below is a letter from a Best Western hotel following a visit from the 10th-grade traveling camp of Minneapolis Yeshiva last year.

The power of reflecting the midos of Hashem is truly infectious.

Camp Maayan
Last year, after a wonderful first half of the summer in camp Maayan midwest, it was time to go back home. Most campers and staff have to fly home. Many staff members and campers were on a flight going from Chicago to New York. As the plane was preparing for landing the flight attendant made an announcement over the loudspeaker saying how there is a group on the flight who has made an unbelievable impression on the flight crew. She commended our group of Maayan girls on their excellent, courteous and polite behavior.

A girls Traveling Camp
“I was walking in New Hampshire and an old man in a car stopped and rolled down his window. He asked me if I am a religious jew and I said ‘yes’. He said ‘do you realize that you’re holding up the world and without you we all wouldn’t be here. You’r the only ones still holding on and doing the right thing. Keep it up and keep staying strong because your people are holding up the world for all of us. Keep strong!’”
