  St. Michael Shrine-113 Hope St.-Tarpon Springs, FL. 34689

There is no cost other than $1 candles to light as a prayer. Doors open at 7 a.m. and close at 6 p.m. every day except Tuesday and Wednesday, when doors close at 7 p.m.

A Greek family built this small chapel in the 1940’s in thanks for the miraculous cure of their young son.
This stone chapel was built to fulfill a boy's promise made to the Archangel Michael during a vision as the 11-year-old lay near death. Steve Tsalickis was diagnosed with a brain tumor 75 years ago. Doctors told his mother there was no hope, yet he recovered and went on to become a popular middle school guidance counselor. His parents built the shrine in their back yard.

One of the most venerated objects in St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Cathedral, Tarpon Springs, Florida, is an Icon of Saint Nicholas. It is a painting framed under glass and kept in an elaborately carved, glass-covered enclosure just inside the cathedral’s main entrance. The Icon is known as "The Weeping Icon of Saint Nicholas. Thousands of people have come on pilgrimage to see this weeping icon. No one has been able to explain its weeping.
