The priest's purpose in building missions was to spread the Catholic religion. The Catholic Church was especially active in building missions, since their clergy believed that Catholicism was the one true faith. This meant the gospel must be preached to those who were not Catholics, and especially to those who were considered heathens, which meant the Indians (Native Americans). By building missions, it was easier for members of the church (not just priests, but bishops as well) to preach to the native people and, it was hoped, to persuade them to convert to Christianity.
