Comment: Every year for 20 years we came for vacation at Fort Myers Beach and while there my family would attend mass on Sundays and at least once or twice during the duration there I would attend mass at the Chapel during the week with the nuns and bring flowers to the grotto. There must be a Catholic Church on Ft. Myers Beach.

Comment: I attended Ascension Catholic Church for two years or more in 2014 etc. It is a beautiful church, and has a very powerful Presence of God, supported by the beach and Gulf of Mexico, and the Order of the Sisters of the St. Claire, a wonderful order of Nuns. I especialy remember, Father Bill, a truly wonderful Priest, the most intelligent and insightful of any I have ever known. He was so enlightened. Truly a gift from God.

Comment: I am here on vacation. I absolutely love this church. The mass was 40 minutes, instead of unnecessarily, one hour or longer, like some other churches. I will definitely consider this church when I come on vacation again. The homily was great; very inspirational, educational, short and to the point, unlike some other pastors that just talk and talk without end; boring and unnecessary.

Comment: Our family had a much different experience than the last review during our spring break visit to the area. We arrived 15 minutes before the start of Easter mass and the church was already busy. COVID protocols were being followed and everyone wore masks. The audience sat in quiet reverence and respect before the start of mass. The lector was excellent and Fr Adam’s is both a great homilist and speaker. If you are in the Fort Myers area would highly recommend this parish.

Comment: My wife and I attended Mass on the Feast of the Assumption. The church is very peaceful and intimate. Mass there was convenient for us, as we were staying on the island. Weve also attended weekday Mass at the smaller Mission Chapel. The landscaping of the grounds is very beautiful.

Comment: Fastest Mass we have ever been to. Most of the Mass was read allowed at a rather fast pace. Didnt feel like a regular Mass compared to what we are used to at our home church.

Comment: Loved that we had a Catholic church in the island (Ft Myers Beach), close enough to walk from the hotel though we drove (hot). Beautiful building, religious articles shop, nice folks, quick Mass, lovely grounds. A little warm inside but theyre trying to keep costs down, understandable. Dress cool.

Comment: Mass at 8 am daily. Sunday services are 8 a.m. in 10 a.m. Saturday evening Mass begins at 4:30 p.m.If you are Catholic or believe that Christ existed, this is a wonderful beach parish. The church is very serene theres a lovely walk with Stations of the Cross around the property.Although Mass is only once daily at 8 a.m., the nuns are over in the chapel all day long. Just ring the bell and they will be happy to greet you. The small chapel is over to the far right of the parking lot.Another unique feature of this church is that they have a lovely gift shop. Everything from beach souvenirs to religious medals, and lovely gifts. The shop is run by volunteers in the proceeds..... go to a good cause, but darn it, I cant remember what that causes is at the moment!!
