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, and the church formed there was named Round Top Baptist Church. Without a fulltime pastor, guest speakers preached each Sunday. During this period, the church was given money specifically for the purpose of purchasing land and building a church building. Using this gift, one and one-half 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 had purchased second homes and retirement homes. The Fellowship proved to be a place of Worship for those spending the weekend in the Round Top area.
