Keith Norman is the Pastor of First Baptist Church, located in the Binghampton community of Memphis, Tennessee. He is the shepherd of a ministry that is dedicated to serve a predominantly African-American community in transition, which is targeted for revitalization in housing, education, and crime prevention. FBC has a long history of service to this community. Pastor Norman has been successful in implementing an on-going campaign of community revitalization and strategic planning for future generations of FBC, including the completion of a $2 million Multi-Purpose Family Life/Worship Facility. The latest undertaking of this vision-inspired ministry is the purchase and renovation of a 50,000-square -foot abandoned building, ultimately to be known as The H.O.P.E. Zone (Haven of Perfective Empowerment). Upon completion, The H.O.P.E. Zone will be dedicated to Christian education, senior living, temporary housing for the homeless, and other much-needed ministry and services for the people of God and the community at large. |
