through the halls of Catholic
church in Kenai, Alaska, second
night of Passover . . . Jewish
prayers sung in Hebrew as more
than 100 voices joined the chorus
of Catholics, Protestants and

church basement to bless the
wine, break the matzoh and eat
bitter herbs in traditional fash-
ion.
Among them were Robert,
Brian, Christopher and parents
Kathy and John Atkinson .. .

synagogue, a member of the tiny
congregation of peninsula Jews
that hosted the Seder, moved to

years later, three Jewish families
