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!!!

District Leadership Meeting in Leiden

We had a great day in the Leiden office as the district leaders came together and were taught by President Brubaker.
President Brubaker shared with them the importance of their calling. They are the ones that meet with the missionaries in their district every Tuesday. They are the "heart beat" of the mission.

Elder van Overbeek, Elder Guanuna, and Elder Davies were truly motivated to find ways they could help their district.
The missionaries shared their thoughts and feelings how they can be better teachers

Role-playing is an essential part of their teaching. President Brubaker involved the whole group in a role play.
Elder Jones is an efficient, dedicated, focused secretary for the mission. The missionaries were so excited to receive their personal investigators teaching calendars! We are grateful for excited, energetic, youthful, creative, dedicated, obedient, diligent missionaries!
"And now my son, notwithstanding their hardness, let us labor diligently; for if we should cease to labor, we should be brought under condemnation; for we have a labor to perform, whilst in this tabernacle of clay, that we may conquer the enemy of all righteousness, and rest our souls in the kingdom of God." Moroni 9:6
