For many years prior to 1950, the church that is now True Grace Fellowship Church Inc. operated as an independent church with no denominational affiliation. In 1949, Albert Glover donated property for the church to be moved from it's previous location closer to Pond Creek, to where it is located today. In 1950, the church affiliated with the Assemblies of God under the name Union Valley Assembly of God.
In the early 1970s, Bessie Adams donated more property for the church to build a new sanctuary and fellowship hall, which was built in the mid-70s. The indebtedness for this building program was paid off within five years. Union Valley Assembly of God was first incorporated in 1982. In the mid-80s, the church bought a doublewide mobile home for a parsonage, which was used until it was sold in 1995.
Reverend Duke Barrow became the Pastor on July 4, 1993. The church changed its name from Union Valley Assembly of God to True Grace Fellowship Assembly of God, Inc., in 1995. That same year, the church remodeled the sanctuary and fellowship hall with labor done by the church membership. In 2000, the church purchased an additional 1.5 acres. The church owns a total of three acres.
In 2001, the church membership resolved to enter into a building program to build a new sanctuary, offices, and classrooms to accommodate the needs of the growing congregation. In November 2002, the church broke ground for a new sanctuary that seats 295. This building was dedicated on July 27, 2003. In Nov. 2007 the church membership voted to return the church to it’s original vision and unanimously voted to return to being an independent church. Therefore the name is True Grace Fellowship Church, Inc.
By the grace of God we are blessed and continue to grow. In 2010 we are striving to build a staff that shares the biblical vision of our Pastor. We are also venturing more into electronic and technical and multi-media ministry opportunities.
We invite and encourage you to join us at any of our regular or special services.
