San Xavier: The Spirit Endures

Today it survives as the vital embodiment of religion, art, and culture established by padres on the frontiers of the New World. San The Spirit Endures explores the beauty, history, legends, miracles, and people associated with the famed desert landmark south of Tucson." (from the back cover)

San Xavier is an old mission that still has an operating school that is on the way from Phoenix to Tucson. We have been there several times and just love the peaceful feeling that I get by touring the mission. This book is a must for anyone who loves exploring old missions!
