What were mission jobs?

If you mean a mission as in a Spanish mission from 1610-1680 the jobs included things such as the Priest (of course) and Indian helpers. The priest baptized babies brought to him and converted the Pueblo Indians to Catholic. The Indians helped in anyways possible and they built the missions using adobe bricks built in Spanish style with vi-gas to support the roof and a bell tower on top to call the Indians and Spaniards to church. The priest also started a school to teach the Catholic religion to other Indians. Sometimes the mission would have Spanish warriors to protect the priest and anyone who disobeyed the priest.
