Nope. You have to sign up for those. If you don't want to be in one of them, no one will ask you to.

I got a personal phone call to my home to renew mine last time. I have also been reminded in person that I was due for renewal. I'm pretty sure that now that I have turned it in I will not be called to renew. But, just wanted to say that sometimes they do hunt you down for a TRI. Of course, all you have to do it say "no thanks."

Hmm, that's bizarre. That means only one of two things:

  • They now do things differently, or
  • They didn't consider me important enough to call.

It varies by ward. My current ward seems to be hyper-vigilant about it.

My ward's EQ presidency keeps a list of who has a TR and who doesn't.

Back when the EQ Pres requested the list from the bishop during PEC, I protested vigorously but lost the battle.

Zee

I have tried here and there.

It does not go well. If a NOM want to be active best to shut your mouth and smile.
