Crossing the Blue Mountains
Crossing the Blue Mountains Due to the rough terrain and lack of resources, the Blue Mountains were seen as an impassible barrier for future exploration from the time of Captain Cook’s landing in 1770 through to 1813. In 1813, Gregory Blaxland, William Charles Wentworth, and Lieutenant Lawson, along with four servants, four pack horses and five dogs, set off on an exploration which was to create history. On the 11th May 1813 the explorers departed from Emu Plains reaching the foothills of the Blue Mountains, or Glenbrook as it is known today. For Blaxland, Wentworth and Lawson, the trip across the Blue Mountains was a tremendous struggle. Having insufficient food for their journey, they recorded the trek required constant hacking through thick scrub and treading through "damp dew-laden undergrowth". They were also in fear of attack by Aboriginals. These factors, in combination with sickness, nearly saw the men defeated by the rugged terrain. Eighteen days later, on the 29th May 1813, the Blue Mountains was no longer considered an impassible barrier following the discovery of the gently sloping mountains to the west. Today, just west of Katoomba you can see the remains of a Eucalyptus tree marked by the famous explorers Blaxland, Wentworth and Lawson. The Marked Tree, along with Caley’s Repulse at Lawson, are the only remaining marks of the early explorers. A cairn of stones was also placed at Linden, however, we cannot be certain if the existing cairn at Linden is the original. Blue Mountains crossing 1813: Blaxland, Lawson and Wentworth cross the Blue Mountains Victoria Pass, Blue Mountains by Eliza Thurston In 1813 Gregory Blaxland, William Charles Wentworth and William Lawson became the first European settlers to successfully navigate a path across the Blue Mountains. -

Diocese of Chester Cycle of Prayer
Diocese of Chester Cycle of Prayer – 2nd August to 5th September 2020 Welcome As this is being compiled pandemic restrictions have begun to ease but resources previously used for this Diocesan Cycle of Prayer remain unavailable. Consequently, and like the three previous monthly editions, the Cycle is once again being produced in a temporary format. The intention is that despite the difficulties of present circumstances our informed intercession for one another should be maintained. As always every parish, deanery and church school is included in order over the course of the complete year. The dioceses of the Anglican Communion worldwide are also included – a very longstanding commitment in this diocese that goes back several generations. The one change in content to that in the printed version is that Sunday entries have become prompts for prayer and reflection based on a thought taken from one of the lectionary passages for the day. These entries are simply ‘thoughts for the day’ that may, or may not (!), aid your own reflection on scripture. They are offered not as models but encouragements to your own endeavours. If you would like to contribute to these ‘prompts,’ please be in touch. As always, intentions for inclusion in future issues are also welcome, please email [email protected] Christopher Burkett Editor and Director of Ministry 2 August The Eighth Sunday after Trinity (Prompted by the Gospel set for Proper 13A) Jesus orders the crowds to sit down. I went on a time management course once, and one of the things we were encouraged to do was to let a person know non-verbally when you haven't got time to deal with them – we were told to stand up, and that would sent most people on their way! I'm troubled by the pastoral insensitivity of it, but nonetheless it's an interesting point. -
