So far the President has attended each Breakfast. There is nothing to indicate that he will not be at this one.

Yes. But indeed, let's hope they coach him on the correct order to make the Sign of the Cross.

Sounds like a good event. I have never heard GWB speak in person. While I don't like a lot of what he has done it still would be exciting to see him in person and take some pictures. Looks like this event is free. That helps too. ;)

Did anyone go last year? I assume this is separate from the other National Prayer Breakfast.

Why should President Bush be expected to make the "sign of the cross" when he is not a Catholic? Just bowing his head when the sign is made should be sufficient.
