Description
| Carta a un oficial real no identificado en la cual el Padre Serra informa sobre su viaje por mar a Monterrey, la entrega de provisiones y el estado de las misiones en el área. Comienza informando sobre la llegada de la fragata a Monterey y la descarga y distribución de suministros muy necesarios. Describe su trayectoria hasta la Misión de Carmel y menciona la llegada del Capitán Don Fernando Rivera. Indica que los frailes están teniendo dificultades para llevar su parte de los suministros a sus respectivas misiones debido a la escasez de mulas. Informa haber visitado todas las misiones durante su viaje desde San Diego, elogiando el progreso realizado tanto espiritual como materialmente y prometiendo informar sobre cada misión por separado. Explica el nombramiento del Padre Juan Crespí como nuevo capellán de la expedición debido a la enfermedad del original; el Padre Tomás de la Peña acompañaría a Crespí. Serra describe en detalle una misa y un sermón de Acción de Gracias que dio durante el viaje. El autor señala la ejecución de las regulaciones reales en beneficio de las misiones, excepto por la llegada retrasada de ganado, artículos comprados y suministros desde Baja California. —— Letter to an unidentified royal official in which Fr. Serra reports on his sea voyage to Monterey, delivery of provisions, and the state of the missions in the area. He starts by reporting on the frigate’s arrival in Monterey and the unloading and distribution of much-needed supplies. He describes his trajectory to Mission of Carmel and notes the arrival of Captain Don Fernando Rivera. He mentions the friars are having a difficult time taking their share of the supplies to their respective missions due to the scarcity of mules. He reported visiting all the missions throughout his journey from San Diego, praising the progress made both spiritually and materially and promising to report on each mission separately. He explains the appointment of Fr. Juan Crespí as the new chaplain for the sea expedition due to the illness of the original nominee; Fr. Tomás de la Peña will accompany Crespí. Serra describes in detail a Thanksgiving mass and sermon he gave during the journey. The author notes the execution of royal regulations for the benefit of the missions, except for the delayed arrival of livestock, purchased items, and supplies from Baja California. 1 f. (2 p.)
