Religious sites in D.C.
I'm using this as an example to try out a "group post."
In the meeting we were discussing possible optional visit to religiously significant sites in D.C.
Julie mentioned the Church of LDS vistors center. May not be very close to metro train station.

Here are some others:
This grand church dedicated to the Immaculate Conception is an important Catholic shrine consecrated in 1959. Its architecture is a mix of Romanesque and Byzantine.
When it opened in 1957, the Islamic Center of Washington was the largest Muslim place of worship in the Western Hemisphere. It is run by a board of ambassadors to Islamic countries.
This Neo-Gothic Episcopal cathedral is the sixth largest cathedral in the world. Completed in 1990 after 83 years of construction, it hosts important national ceremonies such as presidential funerals.
Dubbed the "Presidents' Church," this historic Episcopal church is located next to the White House. Since 1816 every president has attended a service here, including Obama on Inauguration Day.
