Obama attends Easter service at DC Church

The Obama family attends church at historical African American church in S.E. DC, the Allen Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church. As the family, Obama, wife Michelle, daughters Malia and Sasha, and mother in-law Maria Robinson arrived a few minutes after the 11:00 a.m. service they were met with applause and snapshots from cell phones throughout the cathedral.
The S.E. community church deemed, "The Cathedral of the Southeast" has been reeling after the March 30th shooting in the region that left five people killed and four injured.
The church pastor, rev. Dr. Michael E. Bell Sr. acknowledged the President saying, he was the "most annointed, intelligent, and charasmatic President", and complemented Michelle on her attire.  The reverend thanked the President for his attendence saying that is was no accident Obama was here after the fatal shootings last week. Also in attendence was D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty and Councilman Marion Barry.

The church choir rang out with sounds of joy and gospel music filled the air. Obama was seen swaying slightly to the music and taking part in communion. Shortly after the communion the family left the church service.
