An American Carol and George Washington

You might remember this scene from An American Carol.  Here Washington is right, President Washington did attend church more frequently than non-President Washington.  At Mt Vernon, he went about once a month, but as President he attended every Sunday to set an example. Even still, in New York, Washington refused communion as was his custom during his adult life.[1] Perhaps in an age before automobiles, Washington did not want to make the journey.
