Michael Ruk served in the Diocese of Pittsburgh and I beleive was ordained here. (Think I'll skip a picture on this one.)
The Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania said it has cleared one of its Bucks County priests of any wrongdoing after finding no truth to allegations that he offered massages “with something extra afterwards” on an online classified site.
Allen Bartlett, assisting bishop of the diocese of Pennsylvania, said a diocesan committee conducted a lengthy investigation into Michael Ruk, 34, the priest-in-charge of two churches in Falls — St. Paul's in Levittown and All Saints in Fallsington.
“Our church attorney looked into it with great thoroughness and talked to all parties that she could find,” Bartlett said. “She made a report and the committee received it and they decided that there are no charges that need to be considered.”

Thanks for the news. Michael attended our parish when he was at Allegheny. Our choir sang Michael's ordination. Reading about his apparent indiscretion and the ensuing charges was hurtful. I pray it has been a growth experience without any permanent harm to his future.
