You can catch up the Haven CRC’s days 5 here.
The motto for Many Hands For Haiti is “Pi Bon Ansanm”; translated as “Better Together.”
This has been a central idea for our journey these past few days. The phrase “better together” encompasses the truth of Genesis 1:18 in which God said “it is not good for man to be alone.” Many Hands For Haiti acknowledges this motto by encouraging “togetherness” in relationships between the Haitian people, the organization’s staff, group members, and all people’s personal relationship with the Lord.
Today our group saw the effects of “better together” while working side by side with Haitian workers to paint a house and pour a concrete floor.

Reflecting on the day, everything we accomplished was finished because we did it together, working side by side with others and, more importantly, working side by side with God.
