Book Description
On December 14, 1817, Fray Vicente Francisco de Sarriá raised the cross and celebrated the first mass at Mission San Rafael Arcángel. Named after the patron saint of good health, Fray Gil, the founder of the mission, was also a man of medicine and coordinated the mission’s efforts to take care of the sick. The content provided in this book, aligned to California state standards, will provide students with a greater insight into the story of California’s mission system. This book is filled with excellent primary source materials and visuals of San Rafael Arcángel, including illustrations, paintings, and maps.
