    The first permanent church at Mission La Purísma Concepción was built in 1789. One of the biggest problems that the nearby Chumash Indians faced was the sickness brought about by diseases carried by the Spanish. In 1812, the Mission La Purisima was severely damaged by earthquakes and flood, prompting a rebuild four miles away. Today the mission is an official California State Park. The content provided in this book, aligned to California state standards, will provide students with a greater insight into the story of La Purísma Concepción and California’s mission system. This book is filled with excellent primary source materials and visuals, including illustrations, paintings, and maps.
