The Brubaker Family

The Brubaker Family

President Brubaker and I are excited to be here as the Mission President and companion of the Belgium Brussels Netherlands Mission! We love your sons and daughters, and feel to thank you for the wonderful missionaries you have raised! This is a very unique mission. Our mission includes two countries, and five languages, not including many dialects spoken in the Netherlands. The missionaries are teaching many people from all around the globe. With the help of the Spirit, the missionaries are finding those who have been prepared to receive the Gospel. This is truly the best mission in the world, and we are honored to be a part of it. We will try and take good care of your sons and daughters. We love them so much already!

We have 5 children and 11 wonderful grand children. We have so much fun together! We are grateful for the support they have given us as we prepared to leave for three years. Our home is in Salt Lake City, Utah. We have raised our family in the Millcreek Holladay area. We enjoy many activities together. We are happiest when we are hiking in Southern Utah, cross-country skiing into our rustic cabin in the Uintahs, enjoying a good game of Train or Settlers of Catan, or just being together and sharing a meal with each other. We love our family so much!!!

Zone Leader Council Meeting at the Mission Home

Today was our first Zone Leadership Conference. We had 18 Zone leader missionaries here from the whole mission. We enjoyed having the elders in our home. Sister Orton and Sister Baxter were here representing the sisters for the first time. I think Pres. Brubaker was inspired! They were a great contribution! Sister Orton and Sister Baxter are wonderful, and make me feel so at home, and comfortable! I learned a lot about the ovens! I made six quiches, and there are some things I would do differently next time. Partly due to the oven and partly due to my own mistakes. I overcooked the pastry, so they were a little dry, but I don’t think the missionaries noticed. I am finally starting to get the names with the faces. Cute Elder Burton made us an apple pie!

We have the best missionaries. I love to hear them bear testimony, and to talk about about investigators that have changed their lives! They are so sincere, and have the best spirit about them! I truly am so blessed to be here.
