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!!!

One Big Happy Family

Mary Muse, Antwerpen, April 10, 2011

Mary Musa is the mother of Blessing Omozokpia, a very active JoVo in the Antwerpen ward. After losing her sight for a few days, Mary resolved to make changes in her life, one of which was attending
church with her children. The missionaries were quite surprised to learn that she was not already a member and quickly made an appointment to visit her. They opened their scriptures to share a thought and she said, "Wait, sisters. I have a question. What do I need to do in order to be baptized?" :) A date was set and a 3x30 schedule was made. Mary progressed beautifully! She had met with the missionaries before, and was already familiar with the doctrines and principles of the gospel. She was always so happy and willing to learn and apply the gospel in her life. She is full of love for everyone and loves to make others happy, especially her Heavenly Father. She entered into a covenant with Him as she was baptized by her son, Bright, on 10 April 2011. Mary looks forward to the day that she can enter the temple with her children and enjoy the blessings of the Lord's house together as a family. That is what this is all about!
