Gospel stars Erica Campbell and Anthony Brown at Gatewood House in Atlanta
Gospel music stars Erica Campbell and Anthony Brown brought joy and excitement to Ronald McDonald House in Atlanta on Tuesday ahead of the 2014 McDonald’s Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour.
Campbell, one half of Grammy award-winning gospel duo Mary Mary, and Brown, a three-time Stellar Award winner, raised spirits at Ronald McDonald House (Gatewood) — which supports families of sick and terminally ill children. Both artists spent several hours connecting with grief-stricken families, signing CDs and offering words of encouragement ahead of McDonald’s’ eighth annual 12-city tour.
“I met with a few families, it just touches my heart because I have children I can’t imagine having a child who has a brain tumor or cancer or [is] waiting for an organ,” Campbell, who is set to host this year’s gospel tour alongside comedian Jonathan Slocumb and also perform, told The Christian Post exclusively.
“The stress has to be incredible,” she acknowledged before applauding the Gatewood House. “To be able to come to a place like this that gives you a moment of peace and sanity … the place is beautiful, I’m speechless.”
