The Belzer kehillah in Yerushalayim has introduced a creative and practical solution to help chassidim stay informed about the timing of the Belzer Rebbe’s tisch. Given that the schedule often changes, the community needed a reliable way to communicate the Rebbe’s arrival at the tisch on leil Shabbos.
Months ago, a chossid living near Kikar Belz devised a simple yet effective solution: raising a white flag to signal the start of the tisch. This allowed chassidim in the area to prepare for the Rebbe’s arrival. However, the solution has now been upgraded to a more sophisticated system.
In place of the flag, a special flashing projector has been installed atop a tall pole. The light operates similarly to a patented Shabbos lamp, with a cover that, when removed, allows the light to flash brightly, signaling the start of the tisch. The flashing light can be seen from afar, ensuring that chassidim from as far as Shamgar and Tnuva are alerted to rush to join the Rebbe.
The new system is expected to streamline the process and improve the experience for the Belzer kehillah, ensuring that no one misses the tisch, regardless of schedule changes.

Schedules and clocks are ossor bei dem? I dunno from the Belzers since the 1970s but they was a beat, attractive people, upbeat and geunusch. And the Rov was a baal-khesssed, He used to send a shaliakh to my dorm if I hadnt shown up. It’s so unlike them what’s described here. Unless it was rakhmoness for a mshuga designer maybe,
