Maria Menounos has a deep faith in Orthodoxy and whenever she comes to Greece she never misses a pilgrimage to Saint Nektarios in Aegina. “This year, however, I felt a special calling to visit Tinos,” Maria Menounos wrote in a post.

Pilgrims from the United States described the historic pilgrimage, led by Archbishop Elpidophoros of America on the occasion of the 1,700th anniversary of the convening of the First Ecumenical Council in Nicaea, as a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
