Tarpon Springs, FL 34689

The Shrine of Saint Michael Taxiarchis in Tarpon Springs, FL has a fascinating history that dates back to 1937 when the founder, a woman named Mrs. Steve Tsalickis, received a miraculous icon of Saint Michael Taxiarchis from the Holy Abbey of Taxiarchis Michael of Panormitis in Greece. This icon, which emitted the sound of a church bell and led to a holy ceremony, became the catalyst for the establishment of the shrine.

After experiencing the miraculous power of the icon, Mrs. Tsalickis made a promise to her son, Steve, who was gravely ill, that she would build a shrine for Saint Michael Taxiarchis. In a remarkable turn of events, Steve's condition improved after a conversation with the icon, and he was ultimately cured. This divine intervention solidified Mrs. Tsalickis' commitment to fulfill her promise and erect the shrine, despite her financial limitations.

Small but beautiful and meaningful. Well worth a visit. Short walk from the sponge docks and shops

Church was built in 1941 in honor of Saint Michael for the miraculous cure of her son. Lots of miracles happened here. The altar was magnificent, very ornate.
