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. His sincere devotion drives him to beseech a miracle of love, hope, and healing for the well-being and unity of the entire 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. 


Each day, thousands of faithful individuals visit this holy site, experiencing the ongoing presence of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman’s spirit, which envelops those who pray for a 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 stands as a guardian of faith and tradition, where centuries of respect and contemporary prayers are harmoniously 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. 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. In this sacred moment, where the man's heartfelt words echo deeply, the prayer forms a profound link between the past, present, and future, embodying the community's most earnest hopes and desires.
