The P.O. in my congregation telephoned last night. Told me that the elders would like to call round to have a chat with me as they were calling on everyone in my 'situation'. I was tempted to say I'd read about their sweep in the web. Told him I was a bit busy and that it would be a waste of both our time, but he insisted it wouldn't be a waste of his and when would I be free. I repeated that I had nothing new to say (last visit was a year ago) and if I wanted to chat I would call him.
He says he'll call me again in a few weeks. There's a circuit visit in a few weeks so they more than likely want to appear to be an efficient little body of elders rather than busy little body of voyeurs that they are. If they call again he'll get shorter shrift.
