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.


In the dignity of prayer, the man bows respectfully in front of the ancient tombstone, as if embracing the border between the past and the present. The tomb of Rav Hershel Lisker, Tzvi Hersh Friedman, located in Liska Jewish Cemetery, functions as a bridge to the Eternal, where prayers ascend and converge in spiritual unity. 


Thousands of devotees visit this revered place today, feeling the palpable presence of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman’s spirit, which warmly embraces those seeking a message of hope and faith. Requests, wishes, blessings. Words in prayer are not just sounds, but emotions and desires that come from the heart and reach Him.


At the heart of Orthodox Jewish prayer is a plea for blessings upon the purity of childhood and healing for those who are ill. The cemetery embodies the preservation of faith and traditions, bridging the respect of historical times with the petitions of the present. 


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 revered moment, the man's heartfelt prayer weaves together the past, present, and future, encapsulating the profound hopes and desires of the entire community.
