An award-winning girls’ song and dance group from Poland will visit Buffalo July 24 and 25 with performances at Corpus Christi Church. The name of the ensemble is Ychtis (from the Greek word for fish). The group specializes in religious songs. Among their repertoire are songs based on the poetry of the late Fr. Jan Twardowski, one of Poland’s beloved poets.
The group will sing at Corpus Christi Church on Thursday July 24 at the 11:30 Mass and give a performance on Friday July 25 at 7pm. Admission is free.
The group has been in existence for 13 years and is based in Katowice. Ychtis has appeared on Polish Television and toured Europe where they have won first place in a number of contests. This is their first visit to the United Sates.
The group’s performance in the beautiful sanctuary of Corpus Christi Church, promises to provide an uplifting experience.

In honor of St. Christopher, this weekend after each Mass there will be a blessing of vehicles in Corpus Christi’s parking lot.
Christopher is patron saint of travelers, and there are several legends about him, including the one in which he was crossing a river when a child asked to be carried across. When Christopher put the child on his shoulders he found the child was unbelievably heavy. The child, according to the legend, was Christ carrying the weight of the whole world.
