With every transfer, we get a copy of the official assignment letter sent to Elder Bellomy from President Saylin. We got our copy of the letter today.
WE knew he'd been transferred and had a new companion. We also know the Church unit he is serving in. We don't know where the area is...or where his apartment is. Eldrew did leave out one small detail regarding the transfer. He has also been assigned as a District Leader.
(Mormonspeak: A district leader is the missionary assigned to lead and coordinate the missionary work in a smaller geographic area within a mission. We don't know the size of the district, but generally a 'district' comprises between 2-4 companionships. Up to eight missionaries.)
I am sure that Elder Bellomy is excited about this assignment because he LOVES working with other missionaries. I believe that he didn't mention it because he is happy being focused on the work. This is sort of a best case scenario for him. He gets to do the missionary work he likes...and gets to share time with other missionaries.
From a trivia perspective, this also provides Elder Bellomy with chance to experience every assignment an LDS missionary can have on a mission — junior companion, senior companion, trainer, district leader, zone leader, and assistant to the President.
Tomorrow is letter day. I'm sure there are updates coming...and photos if we are lucky!
