March 12, 1592 As I worked to prepare the fields for planting I saw a large group of Mocama men approach. They were the Mocama chief’s chosen workers, sent to help us with our work. It will be good to have help planting and harvesting. Our community has grown so large that we must have them help us construct a new church as well. These coming months are the best of each year. Long days provide time to teach the Mocama to speak Spanish and act as a Spaniard would. By the time they leave the mission some are ready for the royal court! Most of all, I look forward to spreading God's word and welcoming them to His love. After enough years, and after enough men and women have been educated in our ways, the people of this land will be true partners of the Spanish in this New World.
