I had been invited to Fr. Francis's Church on Meades Mountain in 1967 while I was a seminarian studying for the priesthood in NY. My best friend Frank had moved into the Church with Father Francis and had become the groundskeeper. Fr. Francis wanted to learn of changes which were the result of Vatican II and asked Frank to invite me to the Church. I knew very little of the Old Catholic Movement at the time, but found out in later years that Fr. Francis was a main figure in that movement in America. As far as I knew at that time, Fr. Francis was a bishop who had split with the Roman Catholic Church and was living as a hermit on Meades Mountain. I met him one weekend, served liturgy, and was very impressed after a long conversation with him about the state of Christianity and the World in 1967. I wrote about my encounter with Fr. Francis in my novel entitled "The Closer's Song" which I published in 2000. My friend Frank, one of the priest's earliest disciples was very instrumental in bringing Fr. Francis out of seclusion(he was 82 years old)and into the town of Woodstock, where he became the "Hippie Priest".

Notability

The place is on the National Register of Historic Places, is that not notable? Gjs238 (talk) 12:32, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong :Link

The Father Francis link is to a character in a British play - it should be to William Henry Francis Brothers - https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/William_H._F._Brothers Irish Melkite (talk) 18:14, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
