Unfortunately, the information provided still lacked the content necessary to understand the lives of the Indians living in the missions. We completely missed the true significance of why we still exhibit them today. It pains me to know that I was misinformed. Not given the complete history and provided with one perspective is dissatisfying. The purpose and the affect it had on people during that period is vital information. Instead we focused on its outside beauty, how they were built what materials they used, and what sets the San Gabriel mission apart from other California missions.

The San Francisco earthquake on April 18, 1906 was one of the most devastating earthquakes felt by a lot of states. At 5:15 am, this earthquake which registered at 8.25 on the Richter Scale shook San Francisco, California. The earthquake lasted less than a minute and it did a lot of destruction in that period of time.

This historical site encompasses a chain of five frontier Catholic missions, built by Franciscan missionaries along a 12.4 kilometer (7.7-mile) stretch of the San Antonio River in southern Texas in the early part of the 18th century. These missions tell a story of the Spanish colonial period in North America, and the efforts of the Spanish Crown to convert natives to Catholicism and protect and sustain New Spain’s northern frontier. The five missions are: San Jose, Espada, San Juan, Concepcion, and The Alamo/San Antonio de Valero. The San Antonio Missions also represents a blending of cultures-that of the Spanish and Coahuiltecan people, as evident in the decorative Catholic symbols and nature-inspired indigenous designs of the compounds. Today, Concepcion, San Jose, San Juan and Espada still serves as active Catholic parish churches.

As the native embarked a lot of nature resources there were many that are ineffective and some are used in today’s modern medicine.
