Thanks to Sorok Leonid and Luba and Brenda Roberts, the entrance part, which is the church wall, was renovated. Thank you very much for your input. We will remember the spouses Janina and Zbigniew Peyki for their contribution to the repair of the main entrance door. The windows were installed thanks to the assistance of Eva Kozlovska. God will pay. We remember all good deeds. Together we will save the church in Sydorov.
A brief history of the chapel of Jan Nepomuka in the village of Sidoriv.
1840 year. The Kalinovsky family sells the abandoned village of Sidorov and Joseph Kalasanty Paigert (1798-1875), who rests in eternal sleep at the old Sidorovsky cemetery, buys this abandoned village.
Many workers are needed to restart the farm. And they arrived in 1850 from Rymanovo and its surroundings, but mainly from Gatsovo, the village of Wislok in the Krosno Oblast, here from the families of Soltysyk, Shayntsy, Peltsar, Mikhnovich, Kilar, Rymar, Novotarsky, Smoleny, Obertsov, Litarovych, Majevich, Mazurko, Volchanskyi, Wojtovych, Weiss, Skocha Skski, Bolanovskyi, Beletskyi, Kiivskyi, Glazar, Mazurkevych, Bochar, Yachi Movskyi, Jozevci, Wojciechovskyi, Stapi Mskyi, Glowacki, Rozembeger and others. Rymanów is located in the Low Beskids and in the Yasilsko-Sanotsk Valley. In 1853, the emigrants were called colonists, they built a chapel with the figure of Jan Nepomuzen in Sydorov.
I want to tell you a little about Christmas. Saint John the Immortal is a Czech Catholic saint and martyr, a priest of the Prague Archdiocese. The most popular holiday in the Czech Republic. There are statues of Jan Nepomucen in every village and town. They are also very often found in Austria, Germany, Spain. Immigrants brought with them the cult honoring Jan Nepomucen to Halychyna and Volyn. This saint is the protector of travelers, so statues and chapels are mostly located at the crossroads. They also consider St. John the patron saint of all those who work on the water. And he is the guardian of bridges.

I want to tell a little more about the person of the saint. Jan (Ioan) Nepomuk (Nepomuck) is a Czech Catholic saint and martyr, a priest of the Prague Archdiocese. The most popular saint in the Czech Republic. Sculptures of Jan Nepomutskyi stand in every village and city. They are also very common in Austria, Germany, and Spain. To Halychyna and Volhynia, emigrants brought with them the cult of honoring Jan Nepomuka. This saint is the patron saint of travelers, so figures and chapels are mostly located at crossroads.
