Are there any Churches of Genuine Orthodox Christians under Archbishop Makarios of Athens in Southeastern USA?

Check the St. Menas Chapel in Florida City (about an hour southwest of Miami). It is a house chapel, but there is a clergyman living at the premises, therefore there are regular services - all in the Greek tradition.

Oh well 8)

Whether he is or not I cannot say and will not investigate. Many years ago I used to live in Miami, and given the fact that this was the ONLY old calendar mission/chapel in the whole of South Florida (still is) after the ROCOR parish left for the MP, I contacted the owner of the premises, Mr. Romanos Emmert, and attended a couple of services there (before he brought Fr. Nikiforos, and after the priest arrived). As it was, not only they were located far from where I lived (about an hour or so if the highway was used), but I left the area soon after I could really get acquainted with either Mr. Emmert or with Fr. Nikiforos.

We all have sins, some worse than others, but if a clergyman is a drunkard, smoker, flirts with women, is a homosexual (practicing or non practicing), or has weird ideas, in my opinion, it is not up to us to judge him, but up to the ruling bishop to admonish him and reform him, if necessary.

If you live in the South Florida area (either the east coast: Dade/Broward/Palm Beach) or the west coast (Monroe/Collier/Lee, etc), and are interested in fellowship and/or creating a mission, please let me know, there are a few of us out there (albeit members of different Traditionalist/Old Calendarist Orthodox Jurisdictions).

Sorry. Did not mean in any way to harm anyone.
