Answer 1

While he lived in Chicago, Barack Obama attended the Trinity United Church of Christ. Since he moved to Washington DC, he has attended services at several area churches, but has not officially joined a congregation.

Answer 2

Mr. Obama was raised by his maternal grandparents, who were Protestant Christians. To this day, he attends Protestant churches. He has attended churches of several denominations, including Church of Christ, Methodist, and Episcopalian. In Washington DC, he and his family attend a nearby Episcopalian church.

Answer 3

Obama belonged to Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago for many years.

I do not think he has joined any church in Washington and due its controversial pastor, he may have resigned his membership at Trinity.

Answer 4

He doesn't primarily for security reasons, s/as the congregation would have to pass a serious background check, there would have to be massive security around him to protect his person and it would set a specific place and time of his whereabout's for a solid hour every Sunday not to mention the danger he could personally be placing on those others that are attending the service.

Answer 5

The president is a mainstream Protestant. He has attended churches from several Protestant denominations, including Methodist, United Church of Christ and Episcopalian, but is not an official member of any one denomination at this time.

Answer 6

Like other presidents, Barack Obama does not have a church in Washington DC that he regularly attends, largely to due to security concerns and potential disruption to the congregants. He and his family have attended several Washington DC churches, including a Methodist church and an Episcopalian church; these visits were covered by news reporters.
