Tim Johnson is the senior pastor for the Orlando World Outreach Center, founder of Orlando Serve Foundation, and founder of the Fatherless No More Initiative located in Orlando, Florida.
Before becoming a pastor, Tim Johnson was known for his incredible contributions on the football field. As a defensive lineman, he became a High School All-American in Sarasota, Florida. In his senior year, he received Lineman of the Year and Athlete of the Year awards. Johnson went on to play at Pennsylvania State University where he received the Walter Camp All-American Award and won a national championship under coach Joe Paterno.
His NFL career began with the Pittsburg Steelers (1987-1989). He was traded to Washington (1990-1995), where he won the 1991 Super Bowl under coach Joe Gibbs and was awarded the Redskin of the Year and Sports Illustrated All-Pro in 1993. Johnson retired from the Cincinnati Bengals in 1997.
In March, 2022, Pastor Tim Johnson received what can only be considered a spiritual invitation to take the Fatherless No More Initiative to New York City's Rikers Island. The goal was to address the fatherhood issues over time and present the possible freedom by discovering the story of their value in the eys of the Creator.
After a series of meetings with key figures in the New York City Department of Corrections, including Commissioner Louis A. Molina, Deputy Commissioner of the Division of Programs and Community Partnerships Francis Torres, Deputy Commissioner of Public Information James Boyd, and Chief of Department Kenneth Stukes, the Fatherless No More team team received official approval to launch their initiative.
In the months following the launch, between June 2022 and October 2022, Pastor Tim traveled from Orlando, Florida to Rikers Island in New York City. He lived in an RV and stayed on Rikers Island in the correctional facility parking lot. The initiative continues today in a slightly different way.
