This past week-end our family spent part of the day visiting a few missions here in the San Antonio area. This week I will share about our visit to both of them. The first mission we visited was Mission San Juan Capistrano. It was originally founded in 1716 and was moved to its present location in 1731. The mission sits along the calm San Antonio River. Still being an active Catholic parish, the mission still holds services and the priest resides on the grounds in the parsonage. There is a lot of history here as well as being a beautiful place to visit. Here are a few pictures of our visit to the mission.
