They are called a mission because it was the priest's mission to turn the Indians Catholic.
The Apalachee were called the Mission Indians because they were Native American people who lived in the Spanish missions established by Spanish colonizers in Florida during the 17th and 18th centuries. The Spanish sought to convert the Apalachee to Christianity and assimilate them into Spanish colonial society through these missions. The Apalachee were among several indigenous groups in the region who were brought into the missions in an effort to control and Christianize the native populations.
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. Mission was a group of Indians that obeyed the Preist. If I got it Right, i hope it helps :)
