CGA Franciscan?
In 1960 Ball founded a Franciscan monastic community at Stratford Park 

Where did the "Franciscan" bit come from? Flapdragon 22:51, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Cannot find. Have removed reference. Have got a member of staff at the museum in the park trying to find more info/references. He was certainly living in Stratford Park, while he was teaching at Marling. Tinminer 12:24, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Good stuff. Just that being Francisan would presumably make it a Catholic order. Flapdragon 12:34, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

There are communities that follow the Franciscan rule outside of the Roman Catholic Church. If my memory serves the CGA rule mirrored the basic Franciscan tripod of poverty, chastity and obedience. , 10 September 2007 (UTC)10-09-2007 Xschemer 08:18, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Removed text
I have taken this out: for several reasons: 1. I don't think a photo-sales page caption is a reliable source. 2. The part about founding their own religious community repeats what is already on the page and 3. The part about claiming instances of telepathy doesn't provide enough context for the reader to understand what was meant and thereby to know more about the subject.

 * "Twin brothers Michael and Peter "claimed instances of telepathy and founded their own religious community at Stroud in 1960"
