A Catholic church at Fort Myers Beach, Florida has held its first Mass since Hurricane Ian made landfall there four years ago. The 2022 hurricane devastated the barrier island, badly damaging the church and forcing the congregation to worship elsewhere. The service marks a symbolic milestone in the community's long recovery, and residents are expressing relief and gratitude at finally being able to gather for worship on the site again.
