Anyone who knows me knows that I love churches and missions.
Mission San Luis Rey de Francia is a National Historic Landmark. The Mission was founded in 1798 and is located in Oceanside, California.
San Luis Rey is known as the “King of the Missions” as it is the largest of the 21 California Missions.
I visited San Luis Rey awhile back and these are some of the pictures I shot. The photos of Jesus and Mary are actual gravemarkers in the Mission’s cemetary.
There is an annual powwow every year which is always a great event.
