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!!!

A Welcomed Delay

All week long, we were half jokingly hoping that the volcano would keep our family here for just a few more weeks. We made a a mad dash to the airport this morning, only to find that their plane had been delayed! Samuel’s prayers were answered! The plane was delayed because of the volcano!

Our new missionary, Elder Seaman was delayed also. So we had to regroup! President and I went to the office, and Tiffany and Jacob enjoyed a few more hours in Brussels. There were a few hot gaufres waiting for them in the Grand Place!


President Brubaker and I went back to the airport and picked up Elder Seaman a few hours later. We have been waiting a long time! We were so grateful he is finally here! After recuperating from a minor surgery in the MTC, he finally arrived today! We took him with us to meet our family, and tell them a final good-bye.
Dankuwel for the unforgettable memories!
