In recent days, our teacher, the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a (may he live long and good days), wrote a prayer for the return of all the hostages to their homes, healthy and whole. Before you is the prayer for reading and distribution:

PRAYER FOR THE RETURN OF THE HOSTAGES !!!

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from Whom no purpose can be withheld, grant us the merit to see the return of all the hostages in the blink of an eye (ke-heref ayin) = 435, in the merit of: Hashem is One (1), Mashiach (358) ben (52) David (24) = 435. "O G-d, do not keep silent; do not be still, and do not be quiet, O G-d. For behold, Your enemies are in an uproar, and those who hate You have raised their head. They devise crafty schemes against Your people and consult together against Your hidden ones. They said, 'Come, let us cut them off from being a nation, so that the name of Israel will no longer be remembered.'" And may You turn all their thoughts from evil to good, and may the verse be fulfilled through them: "He granted them mercy in the presence of all their captors" [Psalm 106:46]. And may the verse be fulfilled through them: "For He has shattered doors of bronze and cut through bars of iron... He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death and snapped their bonds," and then "Let them give thanks to Hashem for His kindness, and for His wonders to the children of man."
