The ex-priest of a Ukrainian Orthodox church in Humboldt Park has
been charged with swindling an elderly parishioner who survived a Nazi
internment camp out of about $350,000.
Nicholas Chervyatiuk faces felony counts of theft and financial
exploitation of an elderly person with a disability, according to Cook
County court records.
The 57-year-old formerly led Holy Patronage Church, 900 N. Washtenaw
Ave., where 96-year-old Nelly Bridgeman attended service and worked for
years as a secretary, according to Cook County Public Guardian Charles
Golbert.

Welcome to H&C,,, where I aggregate news of interest. Primary topics include abuse with "the church", LGBTQI+ issues, cults - including anti-vaxxers, and the Dominionist and Theocratic movements. Also of concern is the anti-science movement with interest in those that promote garbage like homeopathy, chiropractic and the like. I am an atheist and anti-theist who believes religious mythos must be die and a strong supporter of SOCAS.
