... the breakdown, part 2

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that is correct. In sadistic symmetry, our beloved Mailun has broken down. Not just in a regular breakdown, however; the engine overheated much in the same fashion the van did on the way up. Not all is bad, however. Hannah, our brilliant driver at the time, was watching her gauges and caught the temperature red-lining within instants. Thus was disaster averted. Also luckily - or more accurately, thanks to God - a pair of mechanics stopped to help and assess the situation. So, with the situation safe and under control, we have bravely limped our way into Manitoba! Not quite to the location we were hoping to reach, but not that far off distance wise. It was a long day of driving today, and will be another long haul tomorrow from our current location in Russell, Manitoba to Thunderbay, Ontario - yet we will make it.
Keep praying for our safety and that we will make it home in good time with no more car issues. To those praying for us; your support is felt and appreciated by the entire team!

- Mike
Dei Gratia
