The tranquility of Liska's Jewish cemetery provides a solemn backdrop as a man fervently prays at the grave of Hershel Lisker, or Tzvi Hersh Friedman, expressing his deepest devotion. His sincere devotion drives him to beseech a miracle of love, hope, and healing for the well-being and unity of the entire community.

With a dignified bow in front of the old tombstone, the man appears to honor the intersection of history and the present moment. The special place, the tomb of Rav Hershel Lisker - Tzvi Hersh Friedman in Liska Jewish Cemetery, is a kind of gateway to the Eternal, where prayers soar and meet in faith. 

The sacred tomb attracts thousands of pilgrims, who perceive the lingering spirit of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman, embracing their prayers and offering a divine 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.

Orthodox Jewish communities are at the center of the prayer, asking for a blessing on childhood innocence and those suffering from illness. As a custodian of faith and heritage, the cemetery merges the reverence of past centuries with the heartfelt requests of today. 

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 heart resonates in the man's words, the prayer is a deep connection between the past, present and future, carrying the deepest hopes and desires of the community.
