註釋It is owing to the early settlers of the Bland District that the first churches were built. For those coming to the then outback areas, the need for a church was high on the list for the newcomers, especially the women. Few pleasures were available for lonely hard-working wives and thoughts of church to baptise, marry or bury were high on their agenda. The resilience and self-sufficiency of these families would prove over the years that faith in God, building a church and having a clergyman, helped to make inhospitable life worthwhile, a uniquely Australian inheritance.
