You can read about my time visiting all of the California missions here and about Mission Pala below.
It is a working church ministering to the local population, and while it is not one of the primary 21 Spanish California Missions, it is still worth the visit. Mission San Antonio de Pala Asistencia, located off El Camino Real in a more inland area, is an Asistencia (assistant) Mission to Mission San Fernando Rey de España and is the only Asistencia still being used.
