Church of the Resurrection of our Lord

Church of the Resurrection; 8121 Cypress Lake Drive, Fort Myers, FL 33919

Roman Catholic Church
of the Diocese of Venice

Convinced that Jesus communicates a new life to those who believe in Him, and that He was raised from the dead in order that we might live, we are united to the risen Lord as a people born anew to a life of hope.

Called together as a people of faith, we believe that the Father who raised Jesus from the dead will also raise us, and that we will continue to bear witness to the fact that we are liberated from sin.

As a Resurrection people we are committed to victory over sin through charity, loving God above all else, each other and ourselves.

Prayer for Safety In Hurricane Season

O God, Master of this passing world,
hear the humble voices of your children.
The Sea of Galilee obeyed Your order and returned to its former quietude.
You are sti􏰀ll the Master of land and sea.
We live in the shadow of a danger over which we have no control:
the Gulf, like a provoked and angry giant,
can awake from its seeming lethargy,
overstep its conventi􏰀onal boundaries,
invade our land,
and spread chaos and disaster.
During this hurricane season we turn to You,
O loving Father.
Spare us from past tragedies whose memories are sti􏰀ll so vivid and whose wounds seem to refuse to heal with passing of ti􏰀me.
O Virgin, Star of the Sea, Our beloved Mother,
we ask you to plead with your Son
on our behalf, so that spared from the calamiti􏰀es common to this area and animated with a true spirit of gra􏰀titude,
we will walk in the footsteps of your Divine Son
to reach the heavenly Jerusalem,
where a stormless eternity awaits us.
Amen.
