Well, sometimes weird things happen.<\/p>\n
This morning I guest-led the worship at Faith Covenant Church in Farmington Hills, MI – same church I had the concert at last night for Covenant Community Care. Great church, with an awesome name!! Okay, I confess, that’s the name of my church too. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Anyway, we left after services and headed for Toronto. I’m on the air tomorrow morning live on 100 Huntley Street<\/span>, Canada’s longest running talk show.<\/p>\n We we got to the border, we had this enormous Canadian border guard, and he asked me where I was from and what I was going into Canada for. I told him I was doing a TV show and he asked if I was an actor. <\/p>\n Me: “No, I’m singing”<\/p>\n Him: “Hmmm. Well, you know we’re playing you guys tonight in the Olympics. Hockey.”<\/p>\n Me: “Yep, should be a good game. Hope we get to watch it when we get there.”<\/p>\n Him: “Well, I’m not letting you in until you sing O Canada<\/span>.”<\/p>\n Me: “Ha ha! That’s funny.”<\/p>\n Him: “No, I’m serious.”<\/p>\n Uncomfortable pause. Big guy. Ohio girl who, let’s face it, only hears that song when the Olympics are on.<\/p>\n Me: “Um, Ohhhh, Canada!!! La, la, la, la, la, laaaahhh!!!!”<\/p>\n Him: “Good enough.”<\/p>\n O, Canada!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well, sometimes weird things happen.
