Trump appeared at McLean Bible Church in Vienna, Virginia on Sunday.

The President was dressed in clothing appropriate for the somber occasion, making an exception to his usual style of dress that includes bright red ties.
President Trump also received a blessing from Pastor Blatt, who requested that God would bestow the Christian virtues of wisdom and prudence upon him.
