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!!!

The Young Adults Welcome Elaine with Open Arms

Elaine Liyi, Apeldoorn, Nov. 28, 2010

Elder Verwey and I just did a lookup of a former investigator when we saw this Chinese girl with groceries walking in the distance. She was really easy to spot because she was wearing a bright orange shirt. So we pulled a little sprint and caught up to her. She didn't have any time to really talk to us so we invited her to come to the English class in the Jovo center, gave her the card and went our way. Two weeks later a member walks into Dutch class, followed by a Chinese girl. She explained she found her on the street looking for the Jovo Center with the card in her hand. We made an appointment with Elaine and she came to church that first Sunday. She has been coming to all the activities ever since. Hasn't missed a day of Church and has been way solid throughout the entire teaching process. It doesn't get a lot more golden than that. (Written by Elder De Bruijn)
