Does anyone else see the irony in DefendingYourDoorstep.com sending ME (of all people) their spring e-letter?

"Greetings in the name of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ (Titus 2:13),

March 20th marks a change in the seasons from a miserable winter into spring. Not only does that mean warmer weather and blooming foliage, it means that the mission field at our front doors becomes active once again! Very soon God will be delivering His lost children (Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons) in desperate need of the true gospel of Jesus Christ, right to our front doors! Are you ready?

Now, many Christians are hesitant to get involved in this mission field for many reasons. Some feel unprepared, others feel intimidated. We are looking to eliminate those worries.

For the first time ever (that we can tell) we are looking to create mission teams for this mission field. In other words, when someone is visited by Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormons, we want a team of Christians to respond! Here is how it will work:

You sign up to be on a mission team on our website by following this link: http://defendingyourdoorstep.com/Christian%20Soldiers.htm
We will create teams based on geography.
When you or someone in your area contacts our ministry after an initial Jehovah's Witness or Mormon visit, another Christian will come out for the next visit or visits to help you in your efforts to reach the Jehovah's Witness or Mormon with the true gospel of Jesus Christ! After all, why should they outnumber you in your own home!?
THIS SERVICE IS, OF COURSE, 100% FREE!

This is a new concept, so we expect there may be some bugs to work out, but initial response has been favorable. If you would be interested in joining one of these mission teams, please follow this link and sign up today!

Are they on crack? How on earth did they get my e-mail? And does anyone else think this is a cool idea? Should I make Jello?

LOL! UP, I think you and I should figure out where these "Christian soldiers" are, dress up as sis missionaries and see what they are made of! LOL.

Ohhhh... make the orange jello with the little mandarin oranges in it, and I'll go with you! LOL

Me accompanying you would make it the ultimate in irony!

I've never gotten that one before, but it is funny.

I am a Christian, one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I wonder if the senders actually think we don't go out during winter. I know from my own frozen butt that AIN'T true:D

I don't know why you got it, but it sounds like they are just trying to make themselves, or probably himself look good.

I got an email not long ago advertising for some supposed group that would soon be "exposing" my beliefs all over the media. I waited, nothing happened. Not surprising.

Probably just a crackpot.

Oh my gosh, this is the best laigh I have had in weeks. Lets all take up our crosses and convert one another. I get JW anx Mormans at my door, fortunatly I have brain injury so I do not catch half of what they say. Regardless, they have their beliefs and I have mine. I do not know how they got your email, maybe a friend was playing a joke but I do think it is funny. Let me know if you decide to join their cause and go into the mission fields.

I'm LOVING the answers so far! Especially the thought of UP and Cattie dressed up as Sister Missionaries armed with Jell-o and spaghetti, with strplngwarriormom humming missionary songs in the background.

So too bad you responded. You should sign up and infiltrate their little teams and HELP the missionaries. Then you could turn on them and help the elders/ sisters convert them. I mean we all know that they are the lost sheep.

I don't know about JW's but Mormons proselyte all year round, not just in the spring.
