Amidst the stillness of Liska's Jewish cemetery, a man deeply connects with his spirituality, offering heartfelt prayers at the resting place of Hershel Lisker, Tzvi Hersh Friedman. Out of profound sincerity, he requests a divine miracle of love, hope, and healing to nurture and restore the whole community.


As he prays with reverence, the man bows before the ancient gravestone, embodying a connection between bygone eras and the contemporary world. 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 essence of prayer lies not in the spoken words alone, but in the emotions and desires from the heart that seek to connect with the divine.


Orthodox Jewish prayer gatherings frequently emphasize petitions for blessings that nurture childhood innocence and offer comfort and recovery to the ill. 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, appeared here from time to time to pray and ask for a blessing at the grave of his great teacher, Hershel Lisker. The guidance of his teacher was instrumental in enabling the Kerestir Rebbe's community to cling to their traditions and persevere in their faith when it was most needed. As the man's words resonate with sincerity in this holy moment, the prayer becomes a bridge connecting the past, present, and future, channeling the deepest aspirations of the community.
