Ash Wednesday' March 5, saw the beginning of the fourth year of "Lent Madness"' a wonderfully enjoyable and engaging way for sports fans and others farniliar with bracketology to fearn more-and-more about thirty-two saints each year. {Watch for "Lent Madness" here in 2015!} Bob Franke was our Homilist/Preacher on the First Sunday in Lent' March 9; he sang, "source of ny journey, soutce of my rest, source of ny worst and source of my best, Bfess, as f Inlrestle these years as they roll-: Touch ne and make ne whofe." Bob returned on the Second Sunday of Advent, December 14, and gave me (and, I trust, us) a great gift by singing one of my very favorite song-poems of Bob's: "Stir up your pow'r here in this hour, O Lotd; nake us whofe and
restore our weary sou-Is.,, The ancient collect for the Third Sunday of Advent (BCP 2I2) has us pray, "Stir up your power' o Lord' and with great might cone among us; ,..Let your bountifuJ grace and nercy speediTy help and delivet us." In Lent and Advent Bob helped us ready ourselves for Easter and Christmas.
For our wednesday evenings in Lent programs following Evening Prayer and simple, but marvelous' suppers prepared by various parish groupsr four friends preceded me in reflecting on how our observing Lent had changed through our years from "giving up something old" to "takj-ng on something new." The series was begun on March 12 by The Rev'd Fr. Jeff Hulet; a great sadness in 2014 for me was the departure from this Parish of Jeff+ & DJ. our own Bishop Diane Jardine Bruce told us of her journey on March 19; I^'hat a joy it is for me that +Diane is our Bishop! Our Episcopal campus missloner at UCI, The Rev'd Dr. Fennie Chang, told us of her Lents in Taiwan and Toronto on March 26. On April 2 The Rev'd DI .

The great day for Bob Brenfy was September 14, 1996, when the ciants
inserted him, a catcherf at third base to replace their regular Lhird baseman who was injured. rn the fourth inning, Brenty made an error on a routine ground ba]1. Four batters fater, he kicked away another grounder,. then, while scramblj.ng after the ba11, he rnrew wildly past home plate trying to get the runner there, committing two e.rrors on the same play. A few minutes fater he muffed yet another play to allow a total_ of four unearned runs and to become the first player in the twentieth century to hoLd the dubi-ous record of four errors in one inning. But, in the fifth inning Brenly hit a soro home run, and in the seventh i-nning he hit a singre with the bases loaded to tie the score at 6-6. rn the bottom of the ninth with two out and the count fult, he smashed a massive home run to win the game. He was called .'the 'Comeback pfayer of the year. in one game . " Brenly's box score card for that day came to three hits in frve at bats, two home runs, four errors, four runs aflowed, and four runs driven in, i-ncluding the game winning run, Life is a lot _Iike Bob Brenly, s game: a mixture of hits and errors and the opporLunicy for future redemption. If something bad happens in the fourth j,nning, wait for the fifth ...and the seventh ...and the ninth innings for something better to come around. yes . redemption
