Blood Pressure Checks
Colon Cancer Awareness
Breast & Cervical Cancer Health Education
Massage Therapy
HeartAware, sponsored by St. Vincent Health Systems

Shelia Jones, Director of Health Ministries, says, "We try to come up and have these free screenings so people that won't have an excuse to say, 'Well, I don't have the money,' or even if you have insurance sometimes you may not have the co-pay, but here you can come and get it all done and it's free." The fair will be held Saturday, June 16th from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the church's Education Center, located at 5722 W. 12th Street in Little Rock.
