The Holy Journey of the Esteemed Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a to the City of Eilat

For the third time this year, the esteemed tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a traveled to the city of teshuvah, Eilat. The tzaddik renews himself at every moment, and during the twenty-four hours at the beginning of the week of Parshat Shemot, the start of the Shovavim period, Rav Berland shlit"a journeyed to the city of Eilat. There, accompanied by a large number of veteran students and new followers, he engaged in the holy work of strengthening the neshamot of Israel in the southernmost city of Israel.

Already during the Mincha and Maariv prayers, there was a strong spiritual elevation, as the tzaddik led the prayers in the courtyard of the 'Shuvu Banim' Eilat at 3 Eshlil Street. The atmosphere was fiery, the melodies of the prayer were recited with strength and tune, as the tzaddik captivated the hearts of the worshippers.

Throughout the day, the esteemed tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a engaged in bringing those far from Judaism closer, home visits, receiving the public, and delivering lessons. Rav Berland shlit"a conducted the Shacharit prayer 'with the multitude is the King's glory' at the separate beach of Eilat. The holy Torah scroll was proudly displayed, and musical instruments accompanied those gathered around the tzaddik, as they began to illuminate the dawn with the melodies of the morning songs, preparing the hearts before the Shacharit prayer. 

Towards 9:00 PM, the chassidim accompanied Rav Berland shlit"a to the Eilat airport, while they themselves returned by car to the holy city of Jerusalem. Rav shlit"a landed at Sde Dov Airport in Tel Aviv, and remarkably, even now, after more than 24 hours away from his home, he did not return home. The holy tzaddik, who devoted himself to bringing the neshamot of Eilat closer, and after exhausting himself in this unimaginable work, immediately continued the holy work of bringing those far from Judaism closer, this time in Petach Tikva.
