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!!!

Tis the Season To Be Jolly in Rotterdam

The next day we had a repeat performance in the Rotterdam Zone. This is the last Zone Training we had with the Langevelds (left). They have been serving as the Young Adult senior couple over the Young Adult Center in Rotterdam. The Young Adults have love them so much! The Andersons are being trained and have been here for over a month. The Langevelds have trained them well!
"We must cherish each other,
Watch over one another,
And gain instruction,
That we may all sit down
in Heaven together."

Missionaries were commended and congratulated by President Brubaker for the hard work, obedience and faith as they diligently are finding those who have been prepared to embrace the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We were so excited to share a tradition we have in our family. Some of our missionaries had never had Swiss cheese fondue before. I informed them that this was not a meal where they get full in 5 minutes. This is a meal of enjoying one another's company and eating with mindfulness.


Missionaries were excited and happy to have this time together to just ENJOY!

President Brubaker's had fun turning gingerbread men into handsome missionaries!
LOVE IS THE KEY!


Our four sisters in the Rotterdam Zone enjoyed spending the day together!
Elder Bair and Elder Cox were in charge of the Christmas Program. The missionaries all participated in singing together and sharing their thoughts and testimonies of the their love of the Savior. All who gathered enjoyed a precious moment together.
