上世紀50年代，加拿大神召會宣教士馬理信牧師因著政局動盪，從中國來港並定居於沙田，一方面推動神學院的事工，另一方面跟好友在沙田九肚村建立教會。教堂落成後，周末供教會使用，平日則作幼稚園及日托中心。
In 1950s, Canadian Assembly of God Missionary Rev. J. Elmor Morrison came to HK from China and settled in Sha Tin due to political turmoil. On the one hand to develop the ministry of the seminary and on the other hand to establish a church with friends in KauTo Village. After the church building was completed, it was be used as a church on weekends and as a kindergarten and daycare center on weekdays.
1960年馬理信牧師回國，教堂轉交加拿大神召會東南亞港澳區議會管理，仍作教會、幼稚園及村民相聚之用。隨後因沙田發展，村內兒童減少，故停辦幼兒園。1987年教堂轉交竹園區神召會管理，在蕭開理牧師帶領下，教堂用作營地、神學院及福音機構至2002年。
In 1960, Rev. Morrison returned to Canada and the church was managed by South East Asia District Council of Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada. It was still used as church, kindergarten and villagers’ gathering. Afterward, because of the development of Sha Tin, the number of children in the village decreased, so the kindergarten was closed. In 1987, the church building was managed by Pentecostal Church of HK. Under the leadership of Rev. Siu Hoi-lei, KauTo Chapel was used as a retreat camp, seminary and gospel organization until 2002.
2012年，竹園區神召會大埔堂開始使用及活化教堂作退修、培訓及交流生團契；2018年，颱風山竹襲港，嚴重損壞教堂設施；又因著神的帶領及供應，於2019年年中，大埔堂決定重新裝修九肚福音堂，並開展植堂計劃。
In 2012, PCHK Tai Po Church began to use KauTo Chapel for retreat, training and international students’ fellowship. In 2018, Typhoon Mangkhut attacked Hong Kong and severely damaged the chapel facilities. In the grace of God, in mid-2019, PCHK Tai Po Church decided to renovate the KauTo Chapel and launched a church planting plan.
2021年十月，大埔堂差遣郭偉傑牧師及9位弟兄姊妹到九肚福堂開始主日聚會。我們在禱告中領受到，這教堂要成為神愛的家庭、社區的燈塔和活水的江河。
Tai Po Church sent Rev. Joshua KWOK and 9 brothers and sisters to KauTo Chapel to start the weekly Sunday gathering In October 2021. We have received in prayer that this chapel will be a family of God’s love, a lighthouse for the community and a river of Living Water.
