Jehovah’s seem to be trying to get my 85 year old father into their cult

RE: Jehovah’s seem to be trying to get my 85 year old father into their cult
They tried something similar with my elderly aunt.

At first they asked if they could come in for a chat and she agreed with the stipulation that they didn't push their beliefs.

That was fine for the first couple of visits.

Then they started trying to read passages of the bible to her during their visits.  She said no each time and it ended.

Then they became more insistent and she became more resistant.

Finally she told them she had absolutely no interest in joining their group but they were welcome to visit.

She never saw that particular group again.

As Min said, they target the elderly and the vulnerable.  They're a cult, certainly.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
