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 solemnity of his prayer, the man bows respectfully before the ancient tombstone, symbolically bridging the gap between the past and the present. The revered resting place of Rav Hershel Lisker, or Tzvi Hersh Friedman, in Liska Jewish Cemetery acts as a gateway to the Eternal, where devout prayers reach and intertwine in faith. 

The holy site draws thousands of visitors each day, who feel the enduring presence of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman’s spirit, offering comfort and guidance to those praying for 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.

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. 

Yeshaya Steiner, the Kerestir Rebbe, was known to come here occasionally to offer prayers and request blessings at the tomb of his revered mentor, 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.
