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!!!

Chinese Electrical Engineer Searches the Internet and Finds the Truth

Libo Li, Leuven, Nov 28, 2010

Libo was not found by the missionaries, he found us. After researching religion online for several months, he came across Sister Brubaker’s mission blog and sent her an email. In his own words, Li asked if it would be possible to “join the mormon family” in Belgium or if he would have to wait until returning to his homeland in China. That was an easy question to answer. Four weeks later he was baptized. He believes strongly in God and Jesus Christ as his redeemer and is happy to live the word of wisdom. The gospel for him gives the guidance and direction that he has been seeking for his future. One of the reasons why Li was baptized so fast was because there wasn’t much left to teach him. He had already studied out many of the commandments on his own. He also noticed that there were many negative things written about the church; however, after viewing Sister Brubaker’s blog he was impressed by the appearance of happy, nicely dressed men and women who were definitely not polygamists, so he knew that all of the bad rumors must have been false.
