Due to slow and sometimes unreliable internet access, it is appreciated when Gift Shop patrons can pay for their purchases by check or with cash. Call 831.385-4478, ext. 17 to verify whether the Mission will be opened as scheduled. Changes may occur due to COVID complications or other staffing difficulties.
We do continue to meet at 10:30am Sundays to celebrate Mass together. Please join us. Masks, while still recommended, are no longer required.
Thank you for your cooperation!
Please Note:
When the Mission is closed, so too, are the Mission grounds, Gift Shop, and Retreat Center.
Please pray for our Parish as we navigate these turbulent times with limited means to provide income.
All donations gratefully accepted.
