I was curious. So I dug up my old membership numbers and created an account. I found all sorts of information about my neighbors.
Under 'Reports' I can see what members do and don't have callings. I can see who is taking missionary discussions. Who has moved in and moved out.
But, what was most interesting...
If you go to 'Action and Interview List' you find the following.
Children approaching baptism age
Unbaptized children
Overdue Aaronic priesthood ordinations
Young men approaching mission age
Men who have not served a mission
Potential missionary couples
So, just anyone living in the neighborhood knows all about your personal choices. You are labeled in your non-compliance, having not served a mission, or not baptizing your children as per schedule.
And the gaul... potential missionary couples??? Is that how they see old retired people? Jesus!
What more can we squeeze out of members?
I respect churches in so much as they offer opportunities to serve and be charitable, etc. But, the audacity to just EXPECT it. The labels themselves seem to scream entitlement by the church to their member's charity.
