notes:
Founder of 21 missions in California, Serra converted over five thousand Indians to Christianity. He was known for his self-mortification in the form of beating himself with chains or a stone and burning his chest with a torch. One of Saint John the Evangelist's attributes is a snake rising from a chalice. While at Ephesus, legend has it that John was given a cup of poisoned wine to drink, but after blessing it the poison departed in the form of a serpent.
