  1. SanJuan Bautista by Ryan Wittenberg 5-1-13 Mrs. Gil

  2. Founding History • Founded on June 24, 1779. • Founded by Father Lasuen. • San Juan Bautista was founded as the 15th mission. • Named after St. John the Baptist, a cousin of Jesus.

  3. Location • The mission was built in the coastal mountains, near the Pajaro and Salinas rivers. • This mission was made near the Xisca village of Mutsun.

  4. Design/Layout San Juan Bautista was the only mission with a jail. Workshops lined the middle courtyard in a 90 degree angle. The priests’ quarters was lined up next to the church, workshops, and courtyard. The church was next to the jail, and the cemetery.

  5. Mission Life Native American Life Missionary Life Missionaries woke to mission bells. Missionaries got everything ready in the church for prayer. The missionaries then went to breakfast. After breakfast, missionaries went back to the church to baptize Native Americans. The missionaries then made sure the mission had everything it needed. • Neophytes woke up to mission bells, then go to church for morning prayer. • After prayer, Natives go to breakfast, and eat tortillas, fruit, and cornmeal. • Next, neophytes worked. Men tended to crops, and worked in the forges. Women cooked meals, made pottery, wove clothes, cleaned the floors, and washed clothes. • The neophytes then went to siesta. Siesta was a short rest after work. After siesta, neophytes went to church and had more prayer. Next, neophytes went back to work.

  6. Mission Life Today San Juan Bautista was said to be used as a parish church since 1797. The mission is still an active community today.

  7. Take a Stand The California Mission System was a series of 21 Christian settlements built from 1769 to 1823. Father Serra and his missionaries planned to teach Native Americans the ways of Christianity. I think the Mission System was UNFAIR! The Spanish brought diseases like smallpox or measles (which the Natives never had in the Americas) which helped kill off two thirds of the Native Americans. Natives had to convert to Christianity. If they resisted, they would be whipped or locked in the stocks as a punishment (stocks were wooden objects that were locked around the shins). Natives had to believe in one culture and forget the other. Natives had to learn a new language. They also had to were Spanish style clothes. Lastly, Spanish made the Indians work all day. Work, work, work and all they get is a short rest! Let’s see, what else do the Natives get out of this deal? Uhhhh… a little room and food. Who wants to eat cornmeal, fruit, and tortillas. In the wild, Natives got to eat meat, nuts, berries, all sorts of stuff. Much better in the wild.
