Geocache Description:


Church Micro 13621...Minster on Sea -  Bethel 

 

I can find very little information about this interesting Church but it does seem to have connections to Charles Dickens. 

In chapter 41 of The Old Curiosity Shop, Dickens describes the forerunner of the Bethel church which was originally in Mr Fox's home, Chapel House, at Minster, on Sheppey in Kent.

He writes: "The Little Bethel was not badly named in one respect being, in truth, a particularly little Bethel.

"A Bethel of the smallest dimension with a small number of small pews and a small pulpit in which a small gentleman (by trade a shoemaker and by calling a Divine) was delivering, in a by no means small voice, a by no means small sermon, judging by the condition of his audience which, if their gross amount were but small, comprised a still smaller number of hearers, as the majority were slumbering."

 

So to find the cache you need to solve the following.

N 51° 25.(a+e)c(b-a) E 0° 49.(e-a)(d-g)(f*f)

Year on building  = abcd  

Hebrews_ _V _  = efVg
