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. In prayer, words transcend sound, becoming heartfelt emotions and deep desires that travel from the soul to the divine presence.


The core of Orthodox Jewish prayers often includes fervent requests for blessings that safeguard the innocence of children and provide healing for those suffering from illness. The cemetery itself is the guardian of faith and traditions, where the respect of the centuries and today's requests are 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. His teacher helped the Kerestir Rebbe's community to hold fast to their traditions and persevere in faith when it was needed most. 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.
