Grace Church of the Valley, led by the vision of teaching pastor Deane Plew, desired to plant churches up and down the 15 freeway. After becoming a partner of ministry in 2012, Nicholas Ortega and his family began faithfully commuting from Murrieta, CA to Corona to fellowship with a body a believers that were committed to Reformed Baptist doctrine and a philosophy of ministry that was family integrated. A few years later, John Ellett and his family joined the fellowship and began teaming up with the Ortega family since they were both living in the southwest Riverside county area with the intention to one day be one of the church plants. That vision became a reality in September of 2018 when the church plant was launched following a delightful commissioning service. Grace Church of the Temecula Valley was birthed officially afterward.
