WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama family attended Easter services at a Washington church founded by freed slaves. Members of the Shiloh Baptist Church broke into applause as the first family walked to a second-row pew. Founded in 1863, Shiloh Baptist is one of the oldest African-American congregations in the city. It's located about two miles north of the White House.
