Celebrating Financial Freedom

Celebrating Financial Freedom

Marking the Moment

A couple paid off their mortgage and wanted to mark this moment with a Jewish ritual. We created a ceremony that took place just before the Passover seder. We used the symbols of the seder plate to reflect on the themes of enslavement and freedom that this moment represented. We experienced this ritual, moving room to room, using one seder plate symbol in each space throughout the house. We read a different poem/prayer and answered some reflection questions in each room. We concluded the ritual with the family sharing a video they created of family memories in this home, sharing words of gratitude, which parallels the way we end a traditional seder with words of hallell praise.
