Good Stuff in TEC: Piisburgh

Lunch on McCain a lasting memory

The family settled in Carnegie, eventually moving to Library, where the children attended South Park High School and were involved in the usual activities, including wrestling, tennis and chess. The latest move was to Peters.

He now works in maintenance at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Mt. Lebanon and has been pastor for 13 years at the Slavic Baptist Church in Dormont.

Every winter for the past 10 years, St. Paul's has helped gather more than 10,000 pounds of used clothing to ship to needy people. Some of it is shipped to Ukraine. The Slavic church has raised funds for items such as wheelchairs and computer equipment in Mr. Ivashchenko's homeland.

He said he's happy to give back after others were so generous to him.

Please keep Vlad and his family in your prayers.

Their home in Peters Township nearly burned to the ground on Christmas eve taking many personal possessions and valuable memories with the fire.
