10 Father Serra and Indian Boy Statue at Mission San Juan Capistrano in California

Junípero Serra Ferrer was an 18th century Franciscan friar who established nine of the 21 Spanish missions in California. Their goal was to convert natives to Christianity like this small boy who was from the Acjachemen tribe or Juaneño in Spanish. Father Serra was beatified by the Catholic church in 1988 but one step remains before he is named a saint.
