Tracing his path, missionaries, colonists and soldiers all traveled its dusty stretches; it was the only road between the few civilized outposts. The road was later identified with the missions because the padres maintained the roadway and offered hospitable lodging and religious services to all. It served as the north-south stagecoach route after California became a state in 1850, and in the 1920s bronze mission bells were placed along the highway to let motorists know they were traveling the historic El Camino Real.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLargely reconstructed after the ravages of time, weather, earthquakes and neglect, most of the missions still operate as active Catholic parishes, with regularly scheduled services.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis kit is included in the California Missions Bundle. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKit Includes:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e•\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 22 Embellishments\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCoordinated Kits:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• California Missions Markers\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• California Missions Elements\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• California Missions Papers\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• California Missions Kit\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• California Missions Bundle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lucky Girl Creative","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50579556171938,"sku":"qtj1791364944768","price":4.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/0362\/1282\/files\/california-missions-markers-digital-scrapbook-kit_1.jpg?v=1791364949","url":"https:\/\/chiclydesign.shop\/products\/california-missions-markers-digital-scrapbook-kit","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
