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!!!

Zone President's Training With The Hague Zone

The thing we love most is to be with the missionaries. This was a week where we were able to see and teach and train all of them! We started with the Hague Zone in Leiden. This is our largest zone. President Brubaker shared with the missionaries his vision for the mission.
What is Our Purpose?
To Invite Others to Come Unto Christ

As we have been concentrating on increasing our spirituality since our last Zone Conference, we can see a remarkable change in our missionaries. They have each taken the invitation to work on 10 specific things that will help increase their spirituality. (See President's Letters)
Elder Bastian has made the most of everyday of his mission. His motto has been
"I will give the Lord my best one day at a time."
He is surrounded by the Lord's Army. We thank him for his positive, upbeat attitude and his devotion to his Father in Heaven. We will miss you Elder Bastian.

Where would be without our senior couples? Sister Beckstrand and Sister Pankratz provided a healthy a much appreciated lunch.
We had lots of birthdays to celebrate!
