In the quiet of Liska's Jewish cemetery, a man pours out his heart and soul in prayer at the grave of Hershel Lisker, also known as Tzvi Hersh Friedman. With heartfelt earnestness, he implores for a miracle of love, hope, and healing to embrace and uplift the whole community.


With a dignified bow in front of the old tombstone, the man appears to honor the intersection of history and the present moment. The sacred tomb of Rav Hershel Lisker, or Tzvi Hersh Friedman, in Liska Jewish Cemetery serves as a gateway to the Eternal, where heartfelt prayers ascend and merge in faith. 


Thousands of believers visit this holy place today, feeling that the spirit of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman is still present, embracing those who pray for the holy message of hope and faith. Requests, wishes, blessings. The true power of prayer comes from the heartfelt emotions and aspirations behind the words, which strive to connect with the divine presence.


Orthodox Jewish communities are at the center of the prayer, asking for a blessing on childhood innocence and those suffering from illness. The cemetery itself is the guardian of faith and traditions, where the respect of the centuries and today's requests are united. 


The Kerestir Rebbe, Yeshaya Steiner, would periodically visit this site to pray and seek blessings at the grave of his esteemed teacher, Hershel Lisker. His teacher helped the Kerestir Rebbe's community to hold fast to their traditions and persevere in faith when it was needed most. The man's prayer, deeply felt in this sacred moment, links the past, present, and future, expressing the community's most profound hopes and desires.
