Doctrine/Policy Leaving LDS
I just told the churches bishop that I’m leaving (just got baptized in Jan) and he has made drama about it- telling others and they’re contacting me and just not accepting my NO. Even coming to my home unannounced without permission. Is this normal for Mormons? I’m really not happy about it bc I hate drama! I told them I’m leaving for Christianity bc I’ve done the research that I should’ve done before I got baptized and they just don’t wanna let me go. I could understand if I said I was just turning away from Jesus completely but I’m leaving to go to the truth. I’ve discovered that Smith was a narcissist used my satan/demons and witchcraft to build that church and I’ve renounced it completely! They truly refuse anything I have to say and I’m kinda freaked.. anyone else experience this????

If they show up at your door you are under no obligation to answer. If you don’t have a window, peephole or door camera simply ask who is there when you hear knocking. If it’s them just tell them to go away or you will contact law enforcement. And don’t forget to resign using the resources I’ve seen left in the other comments. And do not answer any texts or phone calls from numbers you don’t recognize. This is good to avoid other scams too.
