The Lubavitcher Yeshiva Simcha Hall on Crown and Albany in Crown Heights was swarming with hundreds of boys this past Wednesday evening, 15 Sivan, ready to receive their long-awaited “sefarim vouchers” that they earned this year by attending Yeshivas Erev.
Rabbi Z. Sorkin, the dynamic coordinator of Yeshivas Erev, opened up the grand finale with words of praise for all of the boys that devoted every evening of the week to further themselves in Limud Hatorah – some reviewing their Gemara, others joining the Mishnayos Gavriel – Mishnayos Mordechai Project, still others doing their homework and some learning Mishnayos and Tanya Bal Peh.
When Rabbi Y. Lustig the מנהל כללי of Oholei Menachem addressed the boys they were mesmerized by his description of how valuable their Torah learning really is.
Rabbi Sorkin then thanked all of the Mashgichim and older Bochurim for their great devotion to the boys that made this year such an outstanding one. He presented each of them with a beautiful gift as a token of appreciation. The evening was also the climax of the Brochos Project sponsored by Yossi Frimerman לעילוי נשמת his parents.
The following boys were the top winners of the Birchas Hanehenin Competition:
Yisrael Meir Altein, Levi Baumgarten, Yossi Bendet, Bentzy Engel, Levi Fischer, Dov Flint, Moishe Chayim Goldstein, Chaim Moshe Matusov, Levi Okunov, Levi Schapiro, Shaya Schtroks, Menachem Silberstrom, Boruch Zalmanov, Isaac Zellermaier, and Yitzchak Zirkind. They were each rewarded with a certificate and a beautiful set of seforim.
Finally the evening was concluded with presenting each of the boys that attended the Yeshivas Erev with a “sefarim voucher” to be cashed in at Kehot. The amount each boy received was based on his attendance and accomplishments during the past year.
Yeshivas Erev will continue iy”H for the next few weeks and also during the summer in the Agudah Shul on Crown Street in the evening from 7:00 to 8:00 P M.
Yeshivas Erev Yehudah Kalman is a project of Igud Menahalie Yeshivos headed by Rabbi L. Newman, Rabbi H. Lustig and Rabbi Y. Simpson.
