Hebrew term or phrase: חשב הי' דבר המו"ח
I would also appreciate help on this term. Mostly the initials המו"ח which appears more than once in this letter. I am assuming that the first part means something like "G-d willing this will be deemed..."

Explanation:
מורי וחמי -- possibly. If the writer is Menachem Schneerson, then it makes sense: he succeeded his father-in-law as rebbe of Lubavitch.

Doubtful -- according to this http://chabadpedia.co.il/index.php/אברהם_שניאורסון_(נכד_אדמו... Avraham Schneerson was an earlier figure. I suspect that the idea is that whatever the Philadelphia center said was assumed to have Menachem Schneerson's authority behind it.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I doubt it is Schneerson himself. The letter is sent from the Philadelphia Lubavitcher Center... (There is no signature at the end) Although it does appear to state in feint English "Rabbi Abraham Schneerson" - so maybe your answer still applies?
