In August of 1870 Mt. Pisgah and Round Island united into one body adopting the name Round Island. In September 1916, Round Island Baptist Church hosted the first session of the Limestone County Baptist Association. In the early 1900's additions were made to the main building and in May 1937 a Sunday School expansion was added. A new sancturary building was built in 1957 and an education building was built in 1974. The current sanctuary was completed and opened for Easter Service on April 20th, 2003.
