I got this in my letterbox last new years day Image from them. It says in Swedish: “On new years eve a lot of fireworks create light phenomenon in the sky. In the near future the greatest light phenomenon the world has ever seen will appear, it will be like when the lightning flames from east to west and shall occur when the Human Son return with his angels return. Vigilance is needed for this event!”
It’s been on my fridge ever since. Still waiting for the return of the king.

I got a letter like this a couple years back. No hallmark card, just the thinnest and flimsiest paper you’ve ever seen. It was pretty eerie to have a random handwritten letter addressed to me by name, but since name and address is public information here in Sweden it’s hardly surprising they have it.
My old workplace happened to be right next to a JW cult church, “Rikets Sal” as it’s called in Swedish, which I’m guessing translates to like “Halls of the Kingdom” or something like that in English. They were terrible neighbours. They tended their property meticulously, and wouldn’t be obstructive, but they’d come over during business hours and they were intensely misogynistic. They’d also attempt to kill the hedge that sat between their church and our offices because they were unhappy with how tall it was. That is up until my boss threatened to charge them for it.
