Guevavi Mission

La Misión de San Gabriel de Guevavi was founded by Jesuit missionary priests Eusebio Kino and Juan María de Salvatierra in 1691. Subsequent missionaries called it San Rafael and San Miguel, resulting in the common historical name of Mission Los Santos Ángeles de Guevavi (O'odham: Geʼe Wawhia Big Wel

l/Spring). Located in what is now Arizona, near Tumacácori, the mission served as a district headquarters for the Jesuits.
