Local area Senior Pastor will address controversy over the President of the
United States' questionable bow before the King of Saudi Arabia.

WASHINGTON, April 10 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- This week, media, politicians
and pundits have been arguing the question, did the President of the United
States bow to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia at London's G20 Summit.  An
unnamed White House source said, "It wasn't a bow." And replays of the video
have raised criticism from the right and praise from some Arab outlets.

In his Easter message, at the 31st Annual Easter Sunrise Service being held at
the Lincoln Memorial, Pastor Amos Dodge of Capital Church will address the
controversy and answer the question, "should a President bow before a King?" 

The Easter Sunrise Celebration, hosted by Capital Church of Vienna, Virginia
will be held at 6:30am on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.  The annual
interdenominational service will include worship, live orchestra and choir.  

Those attending are encouraged to dress comfortably.  A coat or a blanket is
suggested for the often brisk morning.  Directed parking provided.
