Lack of Talent Show
2026-02-21 18:00 - 20:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | NV
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. We have never turned anyone away who wanted to perform/present at this function.
Folks do not have to be in an act- anyone is encouraged to show up and watch if they wish to. All are asked to bring some form of potluck dinner item for all to enjoy. Potluck at 6:00, showtime at 6:30ish.
Please reach out to Gary Ray or to the church office (RFUMCOffice@gmail.com) to let us know if you would like to preform.

Iftar Dinner
2026-02-28 17:15 - 19:30 | NV
Our Turkish/American brothers and sisters from the Silver Sage Foundation again have invited RFUMC to host an Iftar Dinner during Ramadan. We will join together to break the daily Ramadan fast, with SSF members providing all food and drinks. We provide the facility and help with setup/cleanup. Friends from the Interfaith Council will also attend.
Iftar is the fast-breaking meal observed each evening at sundown during the holy month of Ramadan. The Interfaith Iftar Dinner provides an opportunity for the entire community to join our Muslim friends in breaking their Ramadan fast. The event includes a traditional Middle Eastern-Turkish meal, along with presentations by community peacemakers.
RSVP is required for this event so that we know how many people to prepare for. Please RSVP HERE or reach out to the church office at RFUMCOffice@gmail.com for assistance.
