When Father ‘Junipero’ Serra founded Mission San Diego de AIcala, it was his fond dream that a chain of Franciscan stations, each a day’s travel apart, would be established extending from San Diego to San Francisco, It was due to his ambtion to fill in the gaps between the missions in San Diego, ‘Los Angeles, San Luis Obispo, Monterey and San Francisco as rapidly as possible that the Mission San Juan Capistrano in Orange county was created in 1776. This mission is the third on El Camino Real, the ancient ‘‘King’s Highway”’ but was the seventh of the twentyone California missions founded by Father Serra and his brother friars. Father Serra. was in Monterey when, on August 10, 1776, he and Don Fernando Rivera, military commander, received from Viceroy. Buearel! in Mexico authorization to launch two more missions, It was agréed that one station should be between San Diego and San Gabriel Arcangel in Los Angeles near to a spot christened San Francisco Solano by Governor Gaspar de Portola, in 1769. This name was not given to the new mission because the various patron saints had been chosen by the viceroy and San Juan Capistrano was next in line for honor. Hence the seventh mission was named after this saint. Fathers Fermin de Lasuen of SanCarlos de Monterey and Gregorio Amurria of San Luis Obispo was appointed by Junipero to establish the new missionary center. Arriving at the site‘in advance of Father Aumrio, Lasuen erected an arbor, raised a-large cross, blessed the ground and on October 30, 1775, offered up the first holy mass. Numerous Indians were present and welcomed the priest and his soldiers and set about helping to build a chapel. On the same day that Father Amurrio arrived from San Gabriel with goods and cattle, word was received of the Indian massacre at San Diego de Alcala. Lieutenant Ortega immediately set out for San Diego with soldiers leaving a bodyguard with the fathers and urging them to make haste and follow him. Work was suspended, the two, mission bells buried and with all movable goods on pack mules the two priests hurried south. Due to obstacles placed in their way by Rivera, Fathers Lasuen and Amurrio remained idle in San Diego . there is no finer graduation gift San Juan Capistrano Mission Founded 1776 % ; for almost a year. And then Viceroy ordered thatthe Mission San Juan Capistrano be established Bucareli as soon as possible. Highly elated, Father Serra, himself, at once set out for the abandoned site ‘with a Small party. Arriving there he found the cross still standing. He had the bells dug. up, hung them in a, tree and’ then rang them to announee--to the Indians that the missionaries had returned. The natives appeared overjoyed, assisted in building an arbor and altar and-on November _1, 1776, Father Serra offered up high mass. This date is accepted as the day on which Mission San Juan Capistrano was founded. On December 19, seven weeks later, in. a temporary chapel’ Father Amurrio_ officiated at the. baptizing of the first Indian child. The fathers proceeded rapidly with building construction, erecting a new chapel, concerning which Father Englehardat, mission historian, says: “In the absence of all reports to the contrary, we may confidently assert. that Father Serra officiated at Confirmations in 1778 and 17838 in. the still existing chapel, which was the rear half of the present structure; and that, therefore, this chapel may glory in the distinetion of being the only chapel or church in California in which the founder of the California missions celebrated holy mass and administered the Sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation: On his farewell visit to the mission in October, 1783, a year before his death, Father Serra confirmed . 221 persons. ; In 1797, the mission fathers began construction of the most pretentious of all mission buildings. More than 1000 convert Indians lived at the mission at this time. The men were put to work bringing stones from the quarry for the structure, It is related that the Indian women and children wished to have a hand in the building and that they trudged to the quarry and back daily bringing pebbles and small stones in their aprons and hands.
