Abstract	Paseos, which are defined as trips away from the mission authorized by the Franciscan priests, were common among Indians baptized at Mission San Francisco during the period between 1700s to 1800s. Indians went on these journeys in order to harvest acorns and other wild foods, to hunt and fish, and to visit friends and family outside the mission. It was documented that baptized Bay Area Indians' responses to the Catholicism the Franciscan missionaries preached were far from uniform. While some Indians appear to have conformed their lives thoroughly to the priests' religion, the actions of others expressed a great deal of ambivalence. Many Indians chose to situate important life events, including birth and death, outside the confines of Mission San Francisco. This article takes a look at the varied religious experiences of the baptized Indians at Mission San Francisco de Asis from 1776-1821. (Contains 4 figures and 58 notes.) (ERIC).
