OLDEST CHURCH IN
CALIFORNIA REBUILT
AS MIRACLE MISSION
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Dec. 13.—
Its white columns flashing in the
sunshine, the oldest church in Calif
ornia is now once again open for
worship.
This church, located near here, at
San Juan Capistrano and believed to
be the oldest church-building in Cali
fornia, was originally wrecked by an
earthquake in 1812 and, after crumb
ling to ruins for years, has now been
fully restored.
A beautiful edifice, containing an
ancient Spanish altar entirely cover
ed with leaf gold, the church stands
as a monument to the early fathers
of California and to a modem pardre
—a priest from Kentucky with an
Irish name.
The Rev. St. John O’Sullivan, resi
dent priest today at San Juan Cap
istrano, arrived there in 1909. He was
dying. Suffering from an ailment
said to be incurable, he came to die
within the walls of the ruined mis
sion.
For almost a century the San Juan
Mission had been deserted when the
Kentucky father came. Father O’Sul
livan had no money but he found a
j trowel, and he mixed mortar.
{ Under the healing caress of Cali
| fornia sunchine, this padre labored,
j Lovingly he worked restorinng an
arch, a broken tile, a ruined flooring.

Father 0”Sullivan did most of the
work restoring the old mission. Then
came aid from others. For more
than twenty years the work went on.
Not many months after he first
saw San Juan the padre’s health im
. proved, and soon he was almost
well. Today is completely recovered.
They want to rename the old
