Why did Spanish missionaries continue their work in East Texas and on the Plains when many people there resented them?

  Since when are missionaries overly concerned with the welcoming committee? They view themselves on a divine mission.

  Perhaps they believed they had more responsibility to God than to people? Did they have a duty to bring the Catholic Church to Protestants and the unchurched? Along the same line -- why do American missionaries today go to New York and Spain?
