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!!!

A Member Sets A Great Example for Anita

Anita, Den Haag, May 28, 2011

Anita went to a Zion's camp months ago where she met Marije Sherf, a member of the Den Haag ward. She could feel something special and after talking to Marije she learned that she was LDS. She was a little bit familiar with the church because her grandpa is a member in Lelystad. She decided to go to church with Marije and there she developed a strong desire to be baptized and to go to the temple. We started teaching her all the lessons about 8 weeks ago and she humbly began to learn how to accept and follow Christ. As she learned she developed her own testimony and a stronger desire to be baptized. There were about 60 people to support her decision as she stepped into the waters of baptism on Saturday, the 28th of May. Her first step in God's big plan for her! She cant wait to go to the temple!
