Cloudformation how to import existing resources into Stack?

We have a lot of resources created manually. How do I add them to CloudFormation stack without manually adding each of them in template? There are so many resources added manually, that's why it will take too much time If I start adding them manually one by one to template.

Update: Looks like there is no other way than adding them to new template manually. I completed it by updating the infrastructure with new template for the resources that I wanted to sync on PROD env.

Yes, you have to do it manually. But to jump start the process you can use former2 tool, which can generate the cloudformation templates from existing resources for you.
