At the same time Don Gaspar de Portola, leader of Mexico’s military expedition, claimed Alta California (the present State of California), for Spain. The mission, ultimately a part of a chain of twenty-one historic California Spanish missions stretching from San Diego to Sonoma, assumed primary importance. Spain decreed Monterey as the capital of California and established a presidio, or military outpost, for protection against encroachment from other national powers. San Carlos Borromeo Mission, like the other missions, was a religious center established for the conversion and education of Native Americans. Friction between the mission and the presidio, generated by Serra’s dispute over military treatment of the indigenous people, resulted in Father Serra’s relocation of the mission to a site near Carmel Bay on August 24, 1771. There the Mission of San Carlos de Carmelo became the headquarters for the rest of his California missionary work. Pope John Paul II beatified Father Serra in 1988. He was canonized a Saint on September 23, 2015, at Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception by Pope Francis. He is buried in the floor of the sanctuary of Carmel Mission Basilica. The Holy See erected the Diocese of Both Californias on April 27, 1840, and named Francisco Garcia Diego y Moreno as bishop. In 1849 the Diocese of Both Californias was renamed the Diocese of Monterey and Joseph Alemany was named bishop. Later Baja California was separated from Monterey and the original Diocese of Monterey was divided with a new province established in San Francisco. More changes followed as California grew. The Diocese of Monterey-Los Angeles was divided with the creation of the Diocese of Monterey-Fresno in 1924. Finally the current Diocese of Monterey was created in 1967 and encompasses four Central Coast counties of Monterey, Santa Cruz, San Benito, and San Luis Obispo. Bishop Daniel Garcia, the fifth bishop of the Diocese of Monterey, leads the people Mission San Carlos Borromeo circa 1870. From the of the diocese in an ever deeper appreciation and activation of the “grace upon Ed Grabhorn’s Collection San Francisco, California grace” that has always sustained the people of God of the Diocese of Monterey.
