UPDATE Motzei Shabbos 10:00 p.m. The auction will be ending at 10:45 p.m. tonight.
Please note, the advertised time of the bonfire was incorrect. The bonfire event will be taking place at 6:30 p.m.
UPDATE: The bidding ended. The Zchus sold for $450.00.
You state that “The auction will be ending on Shabbos”. Actually, the time ending is 19:48:11 PDT, which is 22:48:11 EST, well after shabbos ends in Lakewood. Please correct this mistake and maybe leave this advertisement as top story until 9:48 motzaei shabbos so someone might chap arain! Gut Shabbos.

On ebay, at end of auction description, it states…. “This auction may be continued at the event.”
What does that mean? Does anyone know if they’re continuing the auction on site? What time? Is there a number I can call? Any other info.???? Please respond!!
Minyan Shelanu is “THE only place in Lakewood” where EVERYONE can, and does, come for ANY sort of help or support!! Be it a yeshiva-man, parent, in-law, teen, layman, yeshivish, not yeshivish, litvish, chasidish, sefardish, taymanish, etc.
Minyan Shelanu has made numerous Melava Malkas on sporadic Motzoei shabbosim. There were large turnouts. They have mesibas for Chanuka, Purim, etc. They have a shabbaton with numerous inspiring rabbonim and askonim in attendance.
They have shiurim given by prominent (yeshivish, litvish, chasidish, sefardish) Roshei Yeshiva, Rabbonim, and Askonim.There are daily – TWO minyanim for shachris, a minyan for mincha, night seder with chavrusos and maariv.
Minyan Shelanu has sent numerous boys to learn in yeshiva in Eretz Yisroel.
THERE IS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO ELABORATE ON THE MANY ZECHUSIM AND HATZOLAS NEFOSHOS that The Minyan has done and continues to do.
The minyan is a place where you may see a boy with long hair saying yehei shmay rabbah ‘bekol koichoy’! Yes THOSE boys are OUR boys, OUR children, OUR klal Yisroel,OUR MINYAN– where every yochid feels that he CAN belong, and that belonging can keep THEM all afloat in order to keep THEM as part of US!!
Remember: These are OUR children! YES, OUR children! Not from NY or elsewhere. No parent should have to ever experience these trying situations.
So, I take this opportunity to publicly say THANK YOU! to:
-the one and only – Rabbi Chaim Abadi Shlit”a,
-All the Rabbis,
-the guys,
-and everyone else at Minyan Shelanu
for your constant, consistent, 24/7/365, caring, VOLUNTEER work!
#4 – all that you say about minyan shelanu is very true. But to suggest its the ‘only’ place in Lakewood is a little naive on your part. B”H I have a lot of places to go that do all of the above that may not have ‘the boy with the long hair’ that you talk about. So in praising minyan shelanu no need to put down the rest of the town. Learning and spreading Torah is going on in Lakewood for quite a while in case you did not know.
Does anyone know who bought the lighting for tonight?

IT IS
“THE only place in Lakewood” where EVERYONE can, and does, come for ANY sort of help or support!! Be it a yeshiva-man, parent, in-law, teen, layman, yeshivish, not yeshivish, litvish, chasidish, sefardish, taymanish, etc.
Can you match ONE other place in Lakewood that fits the above description???
Either you are not affiliated with Minyan Shelanu OR you are ONLY affiliated with Minyan Shelanu and therefore think that every other place in town is the same special.
PS can you read?
What does your last statement (“Learning and spreading Torah is going on in Lakewood for quite a while in case you did not know.”) have to do with what #4 said??????
You probably never stepped foot into Minyan Shelanu.
