It's been awhile since I had my name removed from the records of the Church. Yesterday, I received a letter from our ex-Stake President. He was released about a year ago. He states in it, that even though he was released, he still wanted to continue to write to families on his list of people that he is concerned about.
It was a two page form letter giving all kinds of advice and direction regarding prayer and ending by sharing his family theme: "Never Doubt"
Part of me wanted to write him back and tell him to let it go, that he was no longer Stake President with any authority to provide unsolicited advice (no matter how well intended in his mind). To tell him that I was no longer a member and to take me off his personal list of people to be concerned about. And even to tell him what I really thought of his advice.
But frankly, it was just not worth the stamp.
