I asked my SP and Bishop to watch this:
http://mormonstories.org/top-5-myths-and-truths-about-why-committed-mormons-leave-the-church/Here's the reply I got from the SP:
Brother [rd4jesus],
I will always welcome contact with you and your family. I wish to assure you, as I said as we parted after our recent visit, that I will always greet and respect you as a friend and brother.
If you are concerned about understanding or empathy for your choice to have your name removed from the records of the Church, please be assured that I hold no judgement of you. I fully respect your agency and the choice you have made with it. Hopefully you will allow others within your realm of influence, such as your wife and children, the same opportunity to chose as they wish.
I continue to encourage you to carefully consider your path; please do not feel unwelcome at any time, should you wish to talk or to return. The Lord's arms are always outstretched for you, as are those of His Church.
I wish you well!
With love and respect,
President ["D"]
