In the solemnity of his prayer, the man bows respectfully before the ancient tombstone, symbolically bridging the gap between the past and the present. As a focal point in Liska Jewish Cemetery, the tomb of Rav Hershel Lisker—Tzvi Hersh Friedman—serves as a conduit to the Eternal, where earnest prayers rise and connect in unwavering faith. 


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. Prayer transforms words into expressions of the heart, where emotions and desires journey beyond the surface to reach the divine.
