One Church One Child of Florida acknowledges the children who need a permanent family. The series continues featuring children all over Florida who are waiting in foster care for a forever loving family to call their own
January’s child is highlighted in this article. Continue to pray for him and consider making him a part of your family through adoption or a part of your church through Project Watch-Care, for support and mentoring.
Meet J. J.
There are a lot of things J. J. loves, but nothing more than the freedom and fun he finds on a mini-bike. He’s happiest when he’s outdoors — whether he’s running or mowing the lawn or riding bikes — and he’d love to be part of an active family to share that with.
He does well in school, especially in math, and when he grows up he’d like to be a mechanic; although, with his uncanny skills of negotiation, he’d make an excellent lawyer. J. J. has strived over the past few years to make positive changes in his life and he would benefit greatly from the consistent love and encouragement found in a forever family.
He’ll do best in a patient home that has plenty of time to devote to him.
If you are interested in knowing more about J.J. and other children in foster care available for adoption, or if you would like to become a foster parent, mentor, partner or volunteer, please contact LaKay Fayson, Recruitment Coordinator for One Church One Child of Florida at (813) 740-0210 or lakay_fayson@ococfl.org.
