St. John's is a popular pick for presidents – both because it's near the White House and because it's familiar to the Secret Service.
A pew nine rows back from the altar carries a small brass plaque designating it as "The President's Pew." Former President George W. Bush often attended services, and church history claims that every president since James Madison, the nation's fourth chief executive, has visited.
