San Clemente Mission | view photos
In 1994 the San Clemente Mission in Bakersfield California was
re-born. New buildings were constructed in classic California Mission style architecture using exposed beam construction and keeping the simple yet elegant style of California Missions built hundreds of years ago.
This project’s completion is mainly the result of Father Ralph Belluomoni’s tireless dedication and foresight. He chose Susanne Clarke of Scarab Glass Works to design and execute the fifteen leaded glass panels in the main sanctuary which represent various important religious figures at crucial times in the Church’s history.
