King's casket will lie in Ebenezer Baptist Church, where her husband the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. preached in the 1960s and the civil rights matriarch remained a member until her death. King died in Mexico at an alternative medicine clinic, where doctors said she was battling advanced ovarian cancer.
