LaGrange Habitat builds 19th home

LAGRANGE — “I’ll be home for Christmas” could be the tune Kellie Wetzel is humming these days — in her new home, that is.

Wetzel and her five children will put up their Christmas tree in LaGrange County Habitat for Humanity’s 19th home this year.

“We were so excited, we slept there on Friday night, even before we had been able to move the beds in,” said Nicole Wetzel, a student at Lakeland High School. “It’s one of those things you think could never happen to you, but then it did.”

On Saturday, LaGrange County Habitat for Humanity dedicated the home.

As volunteers from LCHFH and friends of the family gathered in the new home, Karen Frederick, the family’s support person, read the dedication liturgy, and Chris Deisler, representing the LaGrange Church of Christ, offered the dedication prayers.

LCHFH and the Wetzel family wishes to thank the LaGrange County community for its volunteer hours, its financial support and its prayers.
