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!!!

Leadership Council in Brussels

We love to have missionaries come to the mission home for Leadership Council Meeting. President Brubaker taught principles of learning to teach by the spirit and asking inspired questions. We just received the new Preach My Gospel dvd part II, and were able to watch parts of it. Missionaries put into practice what they had just seen on the screen, and are well on their way to becoming better and more experienced teachers.

Missionaries are a joy to cook for! It doesn't matter what you prepare they enjoy it and make you feel like you are the best cook. They are very thankful missionaries!

Elder Tibbitts is in charge of our fleet of cars driven by the Zone Leaders. He gave needful instruction on driving rules and taught missionaries how to be more defensive drivers in these two countries with a plethora of obstacles that can make for very challenging safe driving!
Elder Owens signs the klompen for one of our senior couples that will be going home soon.

We are amazed by the talents of our missionaries. We are tremendously blessed with many musical talents, and Elder Verwey from Suriname and Elder Matthews from Heber City, Utah enjoy a moment together.
