Weather prediction was afternoon rain, so I left home early, arriving here by 10 a.m. My plans? To visit the Saint Michael Shrine, Holy Icon of Saint Michael Taxiarchis (the Archangel Michael), and then a visit to the legendary Hella’s Bakery and Restaurant! My first stop was the Saint Michael Shrine, Holy Icon of Saint Michael Taxiarchis (the Archangel Michael) at 113 Hope Street, Tarpon Springs, Florida.   IMPORTANT NOTE: There are ON-GOING reports of the 500 year old Icon (from Greece) manifests miraculous bells ringing and other miracles, and is inside the chapel of the Saint Michael Shrine as follows: If you are inside the chapel and facing the front wall, there is a small table against the left side wall, and there are 2 candles on this small table. Directly above the small table and to the right, hanging on the wall is the miraculous 500 year old Icon from Greece (the miraculous Icon is framed and hanging on the wall). There are reports of on-going manifestations of healing, ringing bells, and miracles which emanate from this Icon.     Saint Michael Shrine  Holy Icon of Saint Michael Taxiarchis (the Archangel Michael) 113 Hope Street, Tarpon Springs, Florida 34689   In 1937 the founder of this chapel Maria dim Tslaichis traveled from her home in Tarpon Springs to Greece with her 4 children, aunts and uncles. While in Greece she visited her native home in Symi, Dodecanese, Greece. She visited the Holy Abbey of Taxiarchis Michael, and gave the Abbot Prior of the Monastery a donation of $300. The priest gave her this icon, photo below, which she brought back to Tarpon Springs, Florida. This icon is the on-going source of many miraculous healings and other miracles as reported by faithful visitors to the shrine. Shown in the 3 photos below, the 500 year old “The Icon of Saint Michael Taxiarchis of Panormiti” an ON-GOING source of miraculous healings, miraculous ringing bells, and other miracles.

I have not visited a "brick and mortar" church in about 2 years pandemic, this was a great in person church visit! In 1979, I moved to the Tampa Florida area, and I have visited the Tarpon Springs Historic District at least 100 times. The first time I heard about this rare gemstone of a church was about a year ago. This was my first time to visit, and I loved it! I love the divine healing energy, peace and beauty here! This church a wonderful divine lineage to health, healing, prosperity, beauty and happiness. It is a rare gemstone in the Tarpon Springs Historic District! The faithful have reported miracles taking place for decades here. It was built more than 80 years ago to fulfill the promise an ill 11-year-old boy made to the Archangel Michael after the Saint saved his life, according to his sister Goldie Parr. When I visited the shrine on 9 July 2022, I sat in the shrine and read (silently to myself) my prayers. Interesting, driving home alone from the shrine I was in a rural area, and I distinctly heard the chime of a church bell! There were no buildings or churches in the area, and my radio was not turned on. Chiming of church bells is one of the repeat miracles reported with this shrine. The church bell chime I heard was distinctive and miraculous! Admission to the shrine is free. If you like, leave a donation: when you enter the chapel, to the immediate right inside the front door there is a small donation box. To the immediate left inside the front door there is a reservoir of holy water with small cups. Free parking to visit this site, park in the unpaved parking lot behind the church: Turn right (west) onto Grand Boulevard, and take the first right turn into the parking lot.

The Restaurant was already completely full of people enjoying the incredible foods, with Greek food the specialty.   I quickly selected some wonderful baked goods, and walked outside noting the storm clouds to the south, on the horizon. Perfect timing, I was off to run a few errands and back home again to cherish Greek pastries purchased. They ship baked goods and foods internationally, to Europe, Asia, the Middle East and beyond.
