Focus: What lasting impact did the establishment of Catholic missions have on Texas?
*The mission-presidio system: used by Spanish to gain control in other parts of the new world. *Missions were Spain’s main way of colonizing and were expected to support themselves. *A mission was a settlement set up in Indian territory. Friars, or members of clergy who belong to religious groups, invited Indians to live at the missions. *The friars taught them about Christianity, the language and customs of Spain, and Spanish farming methods!
*The goal of the mission: was to convert the Native Texans to the Catholic faith and make them loyal subjects to Spain *Hoped mission by mission, Texas would become “Spanish.” *A presidio protected a mission and offered protection from unfriendly Indians.
The First Missions in Texas: -were established in the El Paso area (1609), then East Texas, and finally in the San Antonio area. -Towns and settlements were built near missions and colonist were brought in for colonies to grow and survive.
*The first group of colonists to establish a community was the Canary Islanders in San Antonio. (1730) *Ranching was more conducive to where missions and settlements were thriving (San Antoinio) *Cattle were easier to raise and protect than farming.
- American Indians died from disease -Floods destroyed Indians’ crops. *Natives blamed events on Spanish and plotted to kill them. *The Spanish abandoned the missions and headed west!

Hidalgo wrote the French Catholic priests asking to provide religious services to the local native people when Spanish priest were not available. The letter was sent in secret, without the Spanish officials’ permission. • In 1714, The French governor liked Hidalgo’s proposal, as it offered an opportunity to open trade with Native American people and the Spanish settlements. The unexpected arrival of the French party alarmed the Spanish and caused them to be suspicious of French colonization
