EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) - Habitat for Humanity of Evansville and the Diocese of Evansville hosted a groundbreaking ceremony Thursday for the Diocesan Jubilee Build.

A Jubilee is a major celebration in the Catholic Church which happens every 25 years that celebrates the incarnation of Jesus Christ.

This Jubilee Build celebrates the milestone with a home for Mi’Kyla Sheriff and her daughter.

“I’m excited and shocked. It’s a surreal moment. Like I knew, ‘Oh I’m getting a house,’ I was excited for that, but then it being this big of a celebration and having everyone behind me and supporting, it made me feel, still in shock,“ Sheriff says.

Officials say Mi’Kyla will help build the home and take homeownership classes before she moves in in about 5 months.
