I stopped going to Church back in November. This of course led to emails and texts asking if everything was OK. Soon the missionaries were stopping by unannounced. I sent a firm letter to the Bishop and EQ stating I didn't want anyone stopping by my house unannounced. So they eventually stopped. I recently moved and had no intention of giving them my new address. However, a good friend (who lives in a different area entirely) and the last person I would have ever expected to do this, called my old Bishop and gave them my new address. He then called and talked to my new Bishop. I had barely unpacked and the executive secretary is calling and texting asking to set up an appointment so I can meet up with the Bishop. I very firmly told him no and that I wasn't interested in coming back to the church. I explained how busy I am and don't want to be bothered. Then the EQ president contacts me, welcoming me to the ward and says he hopes to see me soon. I told him that won't be happening. Then the missionaries call and leave a message. Then they text me. Finally, they stop by several times unannounced. I didn't respond to them at all. These people are so tone deaf. The minute I told the Bishop's secretary I didn't want to be bothered or come back, that should have been it. But instead they probably discussed it during Ward council and coordinated this love bombing. It is really damned annoying. I didn't want to have to officially resign, but it looks like I have no choice.
