Elder Alert!!!!!
by flag ini received my first elder call yesterday.
he wants to talk to me today.
i have never been afraid of the elders but i also have no experience on what they are going to say because i have never ask for their opinion on anything and i have never been accused of anything either so, any ex or current elders here that can brief me about what to expect?.

I think they after me now!!!
by flag in2 days ago i received a phone call from an elder that recently moved to the cong i was in.. this elder is the type that feels that he is a big shot!
he gives parts in dc and ca's.. he asked me if he can come to visit, i told him that my husband had to be present and he had to call in advance to make an appointment.. this elder is so obnoxious and treat women as a 2nd class citizens.
any suggestions?.

Did I do wrong on skeeping the "fading" stage?
by flag inup to last month i was a witness in "good" standing in the cong.
i was not from the elite circle but everybody respects me and a lot of people go to me for advice or comfort when they feel left out by "holy ones".
so, i don't know if i made a mistake by cutting all jw activities at once because now i think i'm the topic of the conversation and phone calls already started to come this past weekend.

Elder visit - follow up
by flag inwell, i still haven't met with him yet.. i specifically told him to make an appointment first, and that my husband had to be present.. but, what is he doing?
totally the opposite!!!.
he hasn't called to make the appointment, last saturday he sent his wife to knock on my door (which i did not answered), and he showed up yesterday afternoon (without calling first).
