Skete of Prophet Elijah Commemorations
Located in a desolate, densely vegetated area, half an hour away from the sea, the majestic skete of prophet Elijah captivates with its beauty and serenity. It suddenly appears to the traveler on the road from Karjes and astonishes with its towering domes. It gives the impression of an exotic palace that time has left untouched. A majestic guardian standing there, looking out at the sea lying before him.
A unique landscape of indescribable beauty fringes the skete, adorns and emphasizes its charm, making it even more attractive. It seems that the infinite beauty and tranquillity that reigns here turns the Prophet Elijah's skete into a spiritual airport, where one who is praying can more easily take off and fly into the sky...
The main shrines of the skete are the miraculous icons of the Mother of God "Galaktotrofousa" and "Dakrirroousa", a particle of the True Cross and part of the left foot of the Andrew the Apostle.

To the Mother of God "Dakrirroousa" (Theotokos of Tikhvin)
The miraculous icon of the Mother of God "Dakrirroousa" (Shedding Tears) is an exact copy of the famous ancient image of the "Theotokos of Tikhvin" icon.
The icon is considered the patroness of infants - that is why it is also called a "child's" icon. It helps in the treatment of children's illnesses, calms restless and naughty kids, helps when choosing friends, and protects children from the bad influence of the street. It is believed that the icon strengthens the bond between parents and children.
The icon also patronizes family relationships. It has been noted that if the icon of the Theotokos of Tikhvin is present in the family altar, quarrels between household members occur much less frequently. Marital love and mutual respect are revived, and children become more diligent and obedient. And singles can pray for finding a significant other.
What do we pray the Mother of God "Dakrirroousa" for?
- health of our children and their return to the right path;
- normal development of children;
- protection from bad influence;
- finding a significant other;
- making the right decision;
- deliverance from paralysis, epilepsy, gaining or restoring sight;
- deliverance from despondency when coping with problems or the loss of loved ones;
- finding the right solution in difficult situations;
- deliverance from ill-wishers and enemies;
- love and harmony in the family;
- strengthening of family ties.
