what is the power of the mission san rafael?

What do they mean by "power?" The missions were used to maintain Spanish control in the regions they owned. It also was a way for the church to spread the Gospel. It was also a way to control the native Indians. And it was a way to offer a safe haven for travelers because each mission was a day's journey away from the others.

Some people said that there is something magical in Jerusalem - it gives power and wisdom. But I'm not sure about this.

In 1769, the Portola Expedition visited the Santa Clara Valley. They found a grassy plain covered with oaks and with lots of marshy creeks and rivers. Because of the good land and water, they thought it would be a good place for a mission. At that time the area was called Llano de los Robles, or Plain of the Oaks. In 1774, an expedition set out to find sites for future missions. After a couple of visits, a location on the Guadalupe river was selected. Viceroy Bucareli wanted to establish two locations at the northern frontier, one at the mouth of the harbor and one at the southern end of the bay. Mission San Francisco de Asis was established in 1776 near the entrance to the San Francisco Bay. \nSan Francisco's companion mission was to be named for his childhood friend, Saint Clara. In late 1776, a group of soldiers and priests arrived at the site on the Guadalupe River. \n\nFather Thomas de la Pena founded Mission Santa Clara de Asis, the eighth in California, on January 12, 1777.

Call the mission office for that mission, and they'll be able to tell you which missionaries are assigned to that ward.\n\nIf you live there, I'd say just show up to church and you'll probably meet them.

its to do with the church belonging to the community etc etc and it is seen as a good deed to donate to the repair of a church.  Not all churches are "ruled" by the Vatican though remember, since Henry VIII the Church of England has been seperate.

hahahha.  That will preach.  NOT\n\nDidn't this already happen?  snake handlers...  blah blah...\n\nWHO WAS JESUS TALKING TO?  HELLOOOOOOOO?\n\nJESUS GAVE THAT POWER TO WHO?  Not CHristians  He gave it too the Apostles.\n\n THE APOSTLES GAVE IT TOO...NOBODY.  That ended with the Last apostle.\n\nAny Christian that claims to have the power of a apostle, We can see.  A apostle had the power to raise the dead.\n We can go to a cemetary and, you raise the first one from the grave....I'll raise the second one.

A true Christian can and must overcome sin. The power comes from faith in Jesus. The man that sinneth, he will die.

Perhaps that is a question better answered by your bishop or pastor.  They might know of some programs that can help pay for your mission.  I know my church has a program for people who can't afford missions.  Good Luck and congratulations on the mission!

Spanish Missionaries lead by Father Junipero Serra were the first Europeans on the west coast of what is now the United States.  From their base in Mexico they set out establishing a chain of missions.  The locations the missionaries chose were often close to reliable water sources and arable land.  The missions atracted settlers and evolved into present day cities and towns.\n\nThe Mission Basilica San Diego = San Diego\n\nSanta Barbara, CA has a mission, so does San Lius Obispo, and San Francsico.

More Specificly, God is watching over us. His is the power that directs his angels.
