Organized about 1871 as High Hill Missionary Baptist Church, this congregation first worshiped in a building whose lumber was hauled by oxen to a site 3 miles north of its present location. In 1873, a few months before the railroad came through and led to the founding of Schulenburg, the structure was moved overland on rolling logs to this site. From 1885 to 1913, several faiths shared the sanctuary under the name Union Church. It was reorganized in 1927 as First Baptist Church.
