Can't remember what (former) Relief Society visiting teacher's are now supposed to be called--do you?

Who says the church never changes!?

And no, this "new name" has nothing to do with temple services.

Is "Trollope" part of the new title?

Back in the day, the Ward Trollope was cushie calling.

Gosh, is there a name even?

I believe they are calling it "Ministering" now, whatever the Eff that means.

Minister? Misses-ster?

I know what I'll be calling them though. Joseph freaks.

They aren't "ministers", because they haven't graduated from divinity school.

They aren't advisers, because, again, no training

They aren't friends.

They aren't "assigned friends" either, because their assignment is to entrap you and keep you in the cult. They ask you to clean bathrooms, help brainwash Primary kids, play insipid music with manipulative lyrics, and other useless tasks. This is not anyone's idea of a friend.

They aren't charity workers (see above).

They aren't "servers" or "helpers". It's always us helping them and their cult, never the other way around.

What does that leave?
Trollops
Joseph Freaks
Saleswomen
Money-grabbers
Door knockers (door-bangers is too harsh)
Intruders (tell it like it is!)
Uninvited pests
Cult peddlers
Leeches

Is their official title "ministers"?

I have known some wonderful real-life Ministers, and to put the amateur cult manipulators into the same category is an insult. They have not earned that title. They are not educated and trained counselors. Not doctors or PhD's or psychologists or licensed therapists. Not certified teachers. They are not even certifiably sane. Not to be trusted with your children. Not to be let into your home to shuffle through your bathroom drawers and medicine cabinet, and look in your kitchen for wine and coffee.

The Cult Nazis
Snoops
Snitches (but that assumes I'm doing something illegal--not.)
Creeps

In the temple, such women are called "Priestesses" and "Goddesses." I've been there and heard it. What arrogance!
