-------------------------------
CARNEGIE, Pa. - In 1997 Ss. Peter and Paul Ukrainian Orthodox Church here in our hometown began a clothing drive for children in an orphanage in Artemivsk in eastern Ukraine. As members of Carnegie's Holy Trinity Ukrainian Catholic Church, we as a family of four became involved in the drive to help these needy children. It is the Christian cooperation between our two parishes that eventually led to our "blessing."
On the other side of the world, in Artemivsk, the orphanage director, Andrei Oleksievych Tupitsia, was in his office writing a letter of thanks to this community in America for the wonderful project in which they were continuing to take part, when a young girl named Eryna walked in and asked if she could add a note and the outline of her small hand to his letter of thanks. (To this day Eryna insists that a "spirit" whispered into her ear to enter the office and offer to help!) At about the same time, my wife Angela and I, realizing the many blessings that God had given us, began considering adoption as a way of sharing our good American life.
