Female power is the magic,

New York (JTA) — At a
model seder conducted Mon-
day by the United Synagogue
of America, there were more
than four questions asked.
Instead of merely reading
through the Haggadah and
reciting the formulas, this
seder dealt with a real pro-
blem facing the Jewish com-
munity. Why was this seder
different from all other
seders? Because most of its
participants are suffering
from the AIDS virus.
"The seder is a ceremony of
order," began Rabbi Jerome
Epstein, the leader of the
seder. "AIDS, however, inter-
rupts the seder, the order in
our lives."
The purpose of this seder,
said Epstein, was to "join in
solidarity with those whose
life's order has been forcibly
altered."
Every part of the service
was related in some way to
the plight of people with of
AIDS.
The prayer which states,
"Let all who are hungry come
and eat, let all who are in
need come and celebrate," was
used to teach the need for
tolerance and compassion.
Just as we were slaves in
Egypt, we cannot today be
"slaves to indifference, fear
and prejudice."
In addition to the staff
members of United
Synagogue who worked on
the seder, there were also
seven members of the United
Synagogue Youth who helped
with the preparations. United
Synagogue is the congrega-
tional arm of Conservative
Judaism.
According to Shira Epstein,
a high-school senior from
New Rochelle, "this ex-
perience made us feel more
comfortable" with 'Just Like
Regular People' Beth Fisch,
another USY member,
agreed. "I can say to my
friends that I sat at the same
table as an AIDS patient and
they're just like regular peo-
ple . . . regular Jews."
That awareness of AIDS pa-
tients seen as "regular peo-
ple" is crucial to AIDS vic-
tims, who continuously are
faced with prejudice by
synagogues and
organizations. •
Bud Berman, who has
AIDS, pointed out that while
many churches have special
food programs for AIDS pa-

tients, only one synagogue in
New York, the Stephen Wise
Free Synagogue, has done
anything in that Tespect.
"We in the Conservative
movement have a challenge,"
Rabbi Epstein explained.
"Each day there are more and
more sufferers. We look at
this as a beginning."
With this beginning,
United Synagogue plans to
begin new programs on the
behalf of AIDS patients in all
of its member congregations.
Some of the plans include
various information sessions
on AIDS to better inform con-
gregants about the disease,
providing meals to people
with AIDS and helping local
AIDS service organizations.
