A Message of Health

Gospel Artist Erica Campbell Headlined Church of Glenarden Health Expo
 

Gospel music star and radio personality Erica Campbell delivered a message of health and wellness at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden’s 24th Annual Health Expo held on June 10, at the church’s worship center.

“It’s easy to focus on our outward appearances, making sure we’re looking good, but it’s just as important that we keep up with what’s on the inside,” said Campbell in a statement before the Expo. “Routine checks with our doctors, eating the right foods, and getting plenty of exercise is taking the first steps to a healthier life.”

The Expo was co-sponsored by Radio One, which airs Campbell’s show, “Get Up! Mornings With Erica Campbell.” Sponsors said the mission of the Expo hasn’t changed in its more than two-decade run: free screenings, health-focused educational workshops, and cooking demonstrations on healthy eating.

This year’s Expo also marks the third time that Radio One partnered with church to produce the event that draws thousands of attendees.

Also on hand for this year’s event was health and fitness guru Dr. Ro, who serves as the nutrition coach for “The Dr. Oz Show.” “The Health Expo is a great platform for me to be able to share my story and successes on how to embrace nutrition and fitness for healthier lifestyles,” she said.
