Just got this in the mail. I guess membership is down and they are recruiting. Sad to see. They are fishing in the wrong pond, according to citi data, our town is 63% None for religion. So there is hope!

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Why does it have a high school address. I would be protesting if it is using government property to teach the bible.

Send it back saying "Fellowship" is an inherently sexist misogynist term and that you are reporting them to SJW central until they amend it to person-ship or some other equally good gender neutral term.
It isn't Jesus...it's just a fella.

63% "none" in your town? That is a trend to celebrate!

Am I the only one that thinks schools shouldn't rent out their facilities to Church groups?
Aside from giving the students the impression that they're endorsing the Church... the rental income can make the school grant the Church other "off-the-record benefits", out of fear of lost income.

I actually had a couple come to my house last year with a similar pamphlet. They asked me some questions about churches but never bothered to ask if I was even religious. I was nice to them and listened, because that's just who I am, but their info went straight into the trash.

I politely tell them "No, thank you, I am atheist" & close the door. I don't have time for that crap.
@Della I often imagine myself inviting them in and offering them a cup of decaffeinated tea and listening, out of sheer curiosity. When they're on my doorstep, though, I always find myself blurting out "I'm an atheist" because when push comes to shove, I do not have time for that nonsense in my home either.
@pasha-one-nine My dogs create so much ruckus when they knock I usually don't even open the door. They seem to be okay with that. They just walk away! That usually works for salespeople too.
@pasha-one-nine, @Della They didn't want to come in and they weren't trying to tell me about their religion. They basically just said, "Hey, our church is here, if you're looking" and that was it. Maybe 5 minutes. I really only opened the door because they didn't look like Jehovah's Witnesses or anything. I thought maybe they were neighbors. There's a lady a couple of streets over who has the same house number that has gotten our mail by mistake, so that easily could have been the case.
