Saint Junipero Serra And The California Missions

Send us Fan Mail

We trace the life of St. Junipero Serra from Mallorca to Mexico to Alta California, following the spiritual source that powers his missionary zeal. We keep coming back to the same foundation he lived by: the Eucharist, the sacraments, Marian devotion, and a daily willingness to carry the Cross. 
• Serra’s legacy as a missionary and Apostle of California 
• Early life in Mallorca and a vocation shaped by Franciscan poverty 
• Eucharistic devotion and daily Mass as the center of mission 
• Marian devotion as guidance and strength in hardship 
• The cost of evangelization through suffering, travel, and opposition 
• Mission work in Mexico, catechesis, and compassionate ministry 
• Arrival in Alta California and the founding of Mission San Diego de Alcalá 
• The mission system as a spiritual and practical framework for forming communities

Let’s journey in faith, together.
