Healing, Hope & Hospitality

on Fort Myers Beach

We’re so deeply touched and grateful for the concern you’ve expressed for St. Raphael’s and her people since Hurricane Ian slammed onto the Beach on September 28.  The clean-up/restoration work began the first day the workers were able to gain access to the island and will continue throughout the days and weeks ahead.

The reality is this:  It will be quite a while before we can regather as an in-person worshiping community on Williams Drive.  In the meantime, we are here – our Church family is here, united and determined to move forward with our eyes open to the future.

We are gathering currently each week on Sundays at 10:00am, outside in the Memorial Garden behind the church.  If you are in the area, please join us – and please bring your own lawn chair!  We look forward to welcoming you!

At this point, the most beneficial form of assistance is monetary donations. This financial assistance will enable us to respond quickly and adaptively to the specific needs if recovery, restoration and humanitarian need. Giving online is safe and easy with a credit card. To give to St. Raphael’s Hurricane Ian Relief Fund, click on the donation button above.

As you have questions, concerns or the need of the listening ear and mutual prayer with your priest, please call me on my cell-phone:  239-980-0912.

Please be in touch!
