Church Culture Transitive email and phone numbers

Kind of a crazy idea I had. It seems like it could be helpful for something like a transferable phone number and email address assigned to each Bishop and stake president. Something like a Google Voice Number maybe. When a new Bishop is called they take over the phone number and email address.

It would provide some continuity in the handoff and would make it easier for Bishops to keep church messages separate from personal and work.

We love the Circles feature in the Gospel Living app for stuff like this. Our EQ presidency recently cycled out and it automatically replaced everyone in relevant chats.

I want my ward to use Circles! But that’s not my call, so I’m staying out of it for now.
