 * Mission San Juan

Damage Repair
This is an official document issued recently by the Holy See. In consideration of this mission having been badly damaged by an unusually violent - and entirely unexpected - volcanic tremor, they sent requests to every Spanish-speaking diocese, asking them to consider sending missionaries to restore and rebuild this holy site.

Disaster Upon Disaster
This Spanish document is fascinating. It tells the story of several natural disasters which struck this area: a flood, a fire caused by lightning, and a severe volcanic tremor. In each instance, buildings on this site were badly damaged, requiring considerable rebuilding.

John the Apostle
John, son of Zebedee, one of Jesus' apostles, also called the Beloved Disciple. He and his brother James were known for their impetuousness and temper, which prompted Christ to start calling them Boanerges, Sons of Thunder.

John is credited with writing five books of the New Testament: the Gospel of John, the three Epistles of John, and the Book of Revelation. He's the patron saint of love and loyalty, as well as writers, publishers, and scholars. One of his symbols is a serpent in a cup, which is linked to his patronage of victims of poisoning and burns.

Mission of Saint John
The documents outlines the goals and works of the Missions of Saint John. In addition to their individual spiritual goals and their outreach programs, the people here are clearly passionate about contributing to the nearby communities: education, literacy, health care, even donating a portion of the food they raise.

On This Spot
This document describes the founding of the mission. There were four solar eclipses in this region around that time: in 1521, 1538, 1539, and 1543. Spanish missionaries reported that during each one, a vision of John the Apostle appeared on this site. So in his honor, the Mission of Saint John was built here in 1544.

The Miracle Club
Now this is a fascinating concept. "The Miracle Club: Come meet people that share your beliefs, devotion, and taste for adventure. Create lifelong memories as you travel the world together." It's a Christian singles' group dedicated to visiting pilgrimage sites!
