1997

A group of Christians, primarily from First Baptist Church in La Grange, held Bible Study Meetings in Round Top, Texas. They soon rented space on the town square by FM 237. The church was formed and named Round Top Baptist Church. Without a full-time pastor, guest speakers preached each Sunday. During this period, the church was gifted funds specifically for the purpose of purchasing land and building a church building. Using this gift, 1.5 acres were purchased at the current site located at 440 E. Mill Street. 

1999

A full-time pastor, Matthew Diehl, was called. Shortly after Pastor Diehl came, the congregation voted to change the name to Round Top Church Christian Fellowship. This name change allowed the church to reach all Christians regardless of denomination. The Fellowship grew by way of Believers who were new to the area. The Fellowship proved to be a place of Worship for like-minded Christians.

2000

The church purchased an additional half-acre of land adjacent to the backside of the original property, creating a building site of 2 acres. Round Top Church began a building program resulting in a multi-functional community building. Within one year, the building was paid-in-full, and the congregation was debt-free.
