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!!!

What a Surprise!

President Brubaker and I drove to Lille, France to prepare for interviews the next day. We went to the Centre to get a bite to eat and who should we run into! Our missionaries! They were caroling and it was such a nice surprise and to be in the right place at the right time!

Soeur Fritsch is one of our gifted trainers. Soeur Gappmeier was trained by her ands also Soeur Nielson is being trained by Soeur Fritsch. She is from the region of France called the Alsace. President Brubaker served in her home town of Strasburg when he was a young missionary. It was great to see soeur Kohler, who was transferred from Brussels. All these sisters are serving in Lille and are enjoying the French side of our mission.
