Greetings from OZ: A way forward
http://greetingsfromozontheroad.blogspot.com/2010/03/way-forward.html
As many of you know, technically we have been unemployed since November. Granted AAANZ (Anabaptist Association of Australia and New Zealand) has continued to pay our rent and our supervisor at MMN (Mennonite Mission Network) has found extra money for us. But this was not sustainable. I know that many of you have been praying for us and we thank you immensely. After talking to some friends, we decided to accept their offer. One deacon spoke about it being a win-win for all of us. They welcome us using...

Greetings from OZ: February 2009
http://greetingsfromozontheroad.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Sometimes I am surprised by beauty, or by gifts from God in unusual places or by the enjoyment of hosting visitors. Moriah treated Mark and me. After the back-room was demolished, we could see blooms that had been hidden at the back of the property. One was a two-toned, pink and yellow double hibiscus on a bush with mostly peach coloured (colored) flowers. One was a cabbage palm that was just starting in our back garden. They are natives but self start all over the garden. Since one was. Five retired tra...

Greetings from OZ: June 2009
http://greetingsfromozontheroad.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
When we aren't working on some AAANZ thing, Mark and I do enjoy getting exercise in the garden. The local council (government) has a vegetation pick-up 8 times a year. Recently, we were cutting up some branches on our pile from clearing up the jungle around our house and tearing out the old fencing. Top left: Mark clearing ivy from falling down fences in August 2008, right: part of 'the pile' including old fencing). I wasn't too sad since this is probably the possum that has been eating my cherry tomatoes.

Stories, thoughts and comments from the lives of Micah, Carla and Shawna. Wednesday, April 21, 2010. I thought it would be fun to ask the kids about what they liked about living here and what they are excited about with moving. These two videos are their answers. Then we thought we would ask Jair. we got mixed results. We will have to try again in a few years. Posted by Micah Hurst. Jair is less than forthcoming with his ideas, Giggle.

As I work with student I pray that I can always live out forgiveness.

Oz Hurst Chronicles: Grace and Consequences
http://ozhurstchronicles.blogspot.com/2008/12/grace-and-consequences.html
Stories, thoughts and comments from the lives of Micah, Carla and Shawna. Tuesday, December 16, 2008. Over the last few weeks I have been working a lot with students that have not been following the life style commitment that they all sign to study and live here. It has been frustrating to see them make dumb choices and have to walk through the consequences of their actions with them. It has been very draining. 160;Kept them more accountable? What if we throw them out? I wounder if God feels this way w...

Stories, thoughts and comments from the lives of Micah, Carla and Shawna. Friday, June 20, 2008. The Hursts get Narnia. Welcome to the first blog for "Oz Hurst Chronicles." Hopefully the first of many. We will see how well I do with it. I thought it would be good to put some pictures up of our Narnia and explain where the name comes from. . So to get to the new rooms you have to go through the old wardrobe, and there for, in to Narnia. We even have Aslan in the doorway. Posted by Micah Hurst. Today as...
