[Faith-talk] Was almost bombarded this morning

[Jenny Keller]

Well, it's good to know that someone else has had to deal with this.

If my ex-husband and I were still talking, I could ask him who he sent his email to to where he could no longer be contacted, and he would be removed from the rolls. But I don't remember. And, not going down that road again. 

Well, contacting the bishop should be fine, I like him as a person, but don't want to go through the endless reasons why I should stay. So, not exactly sure how to handle that one. I am resolute and my decision, but, you know how they hammer you. It's like a machine gun :-) anyhow, say some prayers and give me as much info as you can possibly give me on how you handled it. 

Thank you so very much


Jenny

One of the things that I learned was not just how to become a member of a church but it can be important to know how to leave and or become a nonmenber if you choose to do that.

>> Well, I'll let you know that I am trying to leave the Mormon church. Well, the president of the women's society called yesterday and asked if I wanted to go to the temple this morning and when she would be going. Considering the fact that I didn't return the message, and a perfect purposely did not answer the phone to begin with. I figured that would be that, well,, she showed up at my apartment building, frantic because she could not get me to answer the intercom.

>> My assistant manager, who knew that I am planning on leaving the church anyway, and am in the process, found out that she was concerned about me. They were coming up the elevator to my floor, when Debbie found out that she was a Mormon and wanted to get a hold of me. She was told that I was asked if I wanted to go to the temple and what time I would do you have to be ready to go. The assistant manager in her quickness. Said, as the door was opening on my floor, oh, it's kind early for Jenny, let's go down to my office and try to get a hold of her. I guess, when the assistant manager called, somehow, she placated the Mormon enough that she got the Mormon to leave. But, I had heard the phone going off, so I turned it off. Because I wasn't going to have any knowledge or give them a knowledge that I was even here.
>> 
>> I woke up and called my assistant manager back, because it seemed like she was a little concerned or freaked out when she left the message. I returned her call, and she told me that I am warming lady was here freaked out because I was supposed to go to the temple. She explained to me, the manager, what had happened, that they had almost gotten out on my floor, when the assistant manager new to deflect her.

>> You could tell that something was up with the assistant manager, she told me what it happened, and then said, this is really scary. They won't let you go? And I said, well, you would think, because I wasn't returning any phone calls, from anyone, that she would have figured out that I was not going to the temple today.
>> 
>> Debbie is concerned though, because, she said what if someone else had let her in, she would have gotten to your door. I told Debbie in no uncertain terms. The people who are planning on coming here, the people that know that I'm going to answer their door. Call me first, if I am not called by anyone first, and someone knocks on my door. I'm not going to answer. So, that sort of where things stand now with Debbie. Oh man. This is going to be fun
