St. Junipero Serra

$19.99

St. Junípero Serra: A Man of God, A Mission of Love tells the remarkable story of one of the most influential figures in U.S. history. Canonized in 2015 by Pope Francis, Father Junípero Serra was a courageous witness to the Catholic Faith and defender of human dignity. Learn how this humble Franciscan friar worked to protect Native Americans from the abuses of the Spanish colonial government and to win legal protections for Indigenous peoples. Known as “the Apostle of California,” he founded a series of missions that would eventually become many of the great cities in the Golden State. At a time when his legacy has been called into question, this film presents clear evidence that St. Junípero Serra’s heroic missionary activity was rooted in Christ’s commandments to love one’s neighbor and to share the Gospel with all nations.
