Prayers at the Kivrei Tzaddikim

תפילות ובקשות בקברי צדיקים

Across generations, Jewish communities have visited the resting places of tzaddikim to recite Tehillim and pour out their hearts to Hashem, asking that their prayers be received in the merit of the righteous. We are honored to continue this cherished tradition as an act of chesed.

A tradition of prayer and remembrance

Visiting the kevarim of tzaddikim is a longstanding practice in Jewish life. At these sacred resting places, we turn our prayers to Hashem, recite chapters of Tehillim, remember the teachings and lives of the righteous, and ask in their merit for mercy, healing, peace, livelihood, and blessing.

You may write your own request, choose particular chapters of Tehillim, or leave the selection to us. Your words will be printed and respectfully brought to the kever during an available visit.

Our prayer destinations

PRIMARY DESTINATION

The Ribnitzer Rebbe

רבי חיים זנוויל אברמוביץ זצ״ל

Rabbi Chaim Zanvil Abramowitz, the Ribnitzer Rebbe, is remembered for extraordinary devotion to prayer, acts of kindness, and steadfast Jewish observance through years of hardship under Soviet rule. His kever in Monsey is a destination for those seeking a place of heartfelt tefillah.

ADDITIONAL DESTINATION

Rabbi Yosef Kalish

רבי יוסף קאליש זצ״ל

Remembered on his monument as a revered rabbinic figure associated with the name Divrei Yosef. Visitors come to the resting places of such Torah leaders to honor their memory and pray to Hashem in the merit of the righteous.

ADDITIONAL DESTINATION

Rabbi Moshe Yitzchak

רבי משה יצחק זצ״ל

The third kever in our initial group is marked by a Hebrew memorial inscription recalling a respected rabbinic legacy. We will expand this biographical note once its full identification and history are confirmed.

Additional destinations depend on travel arrangements. A selection expresses your preference; it does not require a visit to every site in the same cycle.
