The condition of Rishon L’Tzion HaGaon HaRav Mordechai [Tzemach ben Mazel] Eliyahu Shlita took a turn for the worse on Wednesday, and he underwent a number of unspecified invasive procedures.

The Rav’s recovery has been labeled nothing less than a ‘medical miracle’ by the medical team at Shaare Zedek Medical Center. He was discharged in Nissan following a stroke, surgical procedures and complications, returning to a busy schedule that included giving shiurim in his Kiryat Moshe shul.

The Rav’s talmidim and many many others will be increasing their tefilos today on his behalf and a special tefilos will be recited at the Kosel and the Kever of the Babi Sali ZT”L.

Tefillos begin at the Kosel, Kever Babi Sali & Kever Rashbi at 6pm.
