Dec. 6, 2011 - PRLog -- On Sunday, December 11, 2011 the Pan-Orthodox Choir of Niagara Frontier will perform their annual Nativity Concert at Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church, 45 Ideal Street in Buffalo, NY at 7:00PM. The concert will feature the Masterpieces of Orthodox Choral Music. Following the concert every one is invited to join the choir members for a Christmas Carols “sing-along” and the time of fellowship with coffee, tea and delicious home-baked treats in the parish hall of Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church.

The Pan-Orthodox Choir is comprised of the members of several Orthodox Christian Churches located in Buffalo area and is directed by Fr. Rastko Trbuhovich of St. Stephen Serbian Orthodox Church.

The concert is sponsored by the Council of Orthodox Christian Churches of the Niagara Frontier. The Orthodox Christian Churches in Buffalo area take turns to host this Christmas concert. "It has been a while since we hosted this concert, so shortly after coming to this parish I ask the council if they would consider coming with the concert to us this year. I am thrilled that the council accepted our invitation. Our Church has amazing acoustics, and I am sure this is going to be a wonderful event! " - said Fr. Volodymyr Zablotskyy, the new priest at Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church.

The clergy and council members suggested that a special collection will take place during the concert to help Saints Peter and Paul to recover the great financial loss suffered from recent burglary. "The unfortunate events in the middle of November when about 100 square feet of copper was stolen from the roof of our church in addition to Gospel Book were extensively covered by the local TV stations. We hope that the local media will take interest in this more joyous event." - said Father Zablotskyy.

The stolen Gospel Book was later returned to Saints Peter and Paul, which Father Zablotskyy views as the beginning of the good things to come for this struggling parish.

Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church has also created a Facebook Event Page dedicated to the concert with hope to spread the word to the public and to help them to adequately prepare for the number of guests.
