After 4 months of missionaries dropping by to see dh once a month I was thinking it would be over (since there last meeting was awkward with not much to say).

But now the HT's called dh and set up an appointment to meet him this week. Apparently one of the HT's is also the new bishop.

Of course I worry about it a little. Although dh is very inactive and works in the medical field (so he can't attend church every Sunday even if he wanted to), I still remember the stories about reactivation efforts.

Hopefully it will be like past experiences in other cities we've lived in where the HT's only show up once or twice and then disappear.

I would worry. Why DH is not saying no? Why? Do you have ten percent of disposable income that you don't care how it's spent?

This is a recruitment effort. Maybe DH doesn't care about the endless rules and condescending demands for obedience. Maybe DH is not educated on the massive fraud the church really is?

That's the thing I find confusing (as a nevermo).
He's very inactive. Even when he's off on Sundays he chooses not to go go church. Doesn't pay tithing, no religious photos on the walls, etc. But at the same time, whenever they ask him to do something, unless his work schedule conflicts with it he says "Yes".

Your husband needs to learn to say 'no'.

When they call just tell them this is not a good time, no further explanations.
Repeat as needed.

If they leave messages, conveniently erase the call. Ditto for anything else.
You can't play fair with cult recruiters.

Besides, anyone in the medical field NEEDS their days off in order to recharge themselves.
Insist that your husband rest, rather then serve the needs of a cult.
