Geocache Description:


St Lawrence's R C Church, Sidcup
St Lawrence's Parish has been run by the Marist Fathers (Society of Mary) since 1911. It is a lively Parish, with a large number of lay people assisting in various ministries. Many groups and organisations are active within St Lawrence's, catering for the needs of local people.

Description.
The description refers to the puzzle as there is next to no information about the church itself. So - don't rush to the church unless you are well prepared for your visit. Remember to take all your preparatory work with you!

The given coordinates are not for the starting point but are in the general area. The actual ones you must work out for yourself. Plain sailing you might think, but those of you who know Mrs. FJO will know that she could be a Founder member of a Society of butterfly (Mariposa in Spanish) minds. Once at your location you will need all your research in order to complete the second stage of your mission.
The coordinates are:-
N51 ab.cde E0 fg.hjk. where

a = half the age at which Jean-Claude Colin was orphaned
b = Valparaiso's month less Hokianga's month.
c = a + Sydney's month less the day
d = half of Jean-Claude Colin's Generalate
e = Le Havre's day minus Tonga's day
f = 179f Jean-Claude Colin born
g = Rotuma's day take away Tonga's month.
h = The difference between Hokianga's day and its month
j = Year Colin ordained 18-- less Futuna's month
k = Day on which Claude Bret died divided by 10

Check sum a-k = 44

You can check your answers for the first stage here: GeoChecker.com.

Now for the cache:
N51
l = (b-(e+k))
m = maximum velocity.
n = g + e
p = Nelson's lady's number
q = j - b
E0
r = f X g
s = City of Kent's letter "e".
t = (Number of family members in the Roman Villa - 10)/11
u = a + j
v = n + p


If anybody would like to expand this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication
