SUMMARY:Lack of Talent Show
DESCRIPTION:The Lack of Talent Show has been staged each of the last 25 years. The intent is to provide a gathering of church folks to enjoy each other’s talents\, or the lack thereof.

All are asked to bring some form of potluck dinner item for all to enjoy. Potluck at 6:00\, showtime at 6:30ish. \nPlease reach out to Gary Ray or to the church office (RFUMCOffice@gmail.com) to let us know if you would like to preform.

SUMMARY:Ash Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:Open Sanctuary February 18- 7:30-8:15AM & Noon-12:45PM \nAsh Wednesday is both confession and calling. We kneel acknowledging our mortality\, and we rise recommitting ourselves to God’s work of healing the world. The ashes do not end the story. They mark a beginning—a forty-day journey of prayer\, fasting\, self-denial\, and courageous love. We trust that God will “leave a blessing\,” that even now God is creating something new within us and among us. \nYou are invited to begin this holy journey by receiving the imposition of ashes at Reno First United Methodist Church. Services will be held between 7:30AM & 8:15AM and from Noon-12:45PM. We will create a space for prayerful reflection. You may drop in for a short break or stay for extended prayer. Come as you are. Come weary\, hopeful\, grieving\, longing. Together\, let us tell the truth about our brokenness—and together\, let us turn again toward the mercy of our Creator and Redeemer.

SUMMARY:Tintabulations Holiday Concert
DESCRIPTION:Tintabulations presents “Carols of the Bell” \nA pulsating glow streaks across the night sky — a trail of neon green shimmer\, perhaps a shooting star… or maybe something far more festive! Could it be Santa’s sleigh upgraded to a 1950s Woody\, decked out in dazzling lights and packed with gifts of music and cheer? Listen closer… those aren’t reindeer hooves — it’s the ringing of bronze bells echoing joy through the winter air! \nAs the holidays approach\, the air fills with familiar melodies that awaken treasured memories. The pealing of bells\, the glistening of silver\, the warmth of community song — these sounds tell stories that bind us together through the season. “Carol of the Bells\,” originally composed by Mykola Leontovych\, captures this very spirit: the joy\, the anticipation\, and the togetherness that define our holiday traditions. \nThis year\, Tintabulations Handbell Ensemble invites you to experience Carols of the Bell — an exuberant holiday concert exploring the meaning behind our favorite carols and the stories they tell. From timeless classics to fresh arrangements\, each piece celebrates the wonder\, humor\, and heart of the season. \nAudiences will be transported through songs that have become part of our collective holiday soundtrack — reminders of gathering\, giving\, and rejoicing. With the ensemble’s signature artistry and sparkle\, Tintabulations will deliver a performance that is both nostalgic and refreshingly new. \nJoin us for an extravagantly cheery holiday concert that promises to warm your heart\, lift your spirit\, and maybe even make you believe — just for a moment — that Santa really is cruising the northern Nevada skies in a neon-lit sleigh full of sound and light. \nAll performances are free of charge; donations are cheerfully accepted to support the ensemble’s mission of promoting handbell artistry and music education.\nFor more information\, visit our website at www.tintabulations.com.

SUMMARY:RFUMC Hiker's Group
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a beautiful hike on the Rubicon Trail\, Wednesday September 25th at 8:30am. We meet at the Kohl’s parking lot in Northwest Reno to carpool. Look for a blue car with a box and a very shaggy dog.\n\n\n \n\n\nThis is a high elevation hike with some elevation gain\, but nothing too crazy. We usually hope for a few miles walk then return. Wildflowers have peaked\, but there seem to be a lot of them left. It’ll be cooler than in town. \n\n\n \n\n\n(call 322.4564 for more information) #umccreationcare
