Who we are
Grow & Go
It's all about RELATIONSHIP
The history of "Living Stream" church began with a group of Slavic Christians, praying for God to send them a pastor. In 2000 the Lord brought Bondarenko family to Jacksonville, and Vitaliy Ivanovich Bondarenko became the first pastor.
For 17 years of his ministry he faithfully ministered and laid a solid foundation in the spiritual development of the church.
Pastor Vitaliy loved people, and had a heart for serving young people; he devoted much of his attention to them - he married, baptized, and ordained many of them. Most importantly, he used every opportunity available to preach about the Lord.
Pastor Vitaly’s ministry went beyond our church. He taught in various Bible schools, was invited as a speaker to many conferences, greatly supported missions, and never stopped evangelizing.
In 2017, our beloved Pastor Vitaliy left to be with the Lord and his son, Bogdan Bondarenko, became the senior pastor. Today, our church continues to grow and develop in different directions, despite all the difficulties we have faced.
Living Stream Church's vision can be stated in two words: GROW and GO, which means we are striving to achieve spiritual maturity and go into this world to save the lost.
God has not yet told us “enough”; therefore, our story continues. The desire and purpose of our church is to be the light and salt of this world, not just to be in “Living Stream” church, but to be the living stream.
