Personal ObservationsWe visited this mission for the first time on April 3, 2004. Mission San Luis Obispo is another mission in the heart of a city. Like other similarly located missions, it is not large, but is a vital active parish. One Sunday I was fortunate to watch the ringing of the bells from the bell tower.More pending |
