  Elle, Here is your answer. The material from which these missions was made was not something that would last like the missions in the Southwest. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_missions_in_Florida "The mission buildings of la Florida were built with posts set into the ground. The walls were palmetto thatch, wattle and daub or plank, or left open. The floors were clay, and the roofs are presumed to have been thatched. The church buildings in the missions averaged some 20 m by 11 m"
