On Sunday, just
in time for Christmas, Habitat for Humanity turned over the keys to
the affiliate's 17th build in Logan County.
The home now belongs to Harley
and Chaka Utterback and their sons, Aven and Dakyn. With snow
on the ground and very chilly temperatures, the house blessing
ceremony was held inside the home. Thankfully, one of the very
nice features in the home is laminate flooring, so folks were able to
come in and share the Utterbacks' joy without worrying about ruining
carpets.
The service began with Habitat
president Mike Irwin talking about the commitment the Utterbacks
have made to homeownership. The family will work to pay back
the cost of the build by making monthly payments. Like any
other homeowners, they will be responsible for their home and to the
community where they now live.
