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!!!

Maryna's Prayers Are Answered

Maryna Ventsova,

Elder Seaman Maryna and Elder Van Rij

Maryna is from Russia and moved to the Netherlands for work. Since arriving here, she has gotten married and became the mother of 2 wonderful daughters. Around a year and a half ago, Maryna began to pray to God asking to meet some people with whom she could talk about God with. Soon after that, Maryna met two Sister missionaries and began to follow the missionary lessons. Since meeting with the missionaries, she has read the Book of Mormon twice, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the New Testament. Maryna absolutely loves the gospel of Jesus Christ and sees how it has changed her life. She is spiritually hungry to learn more and more. Several weeks ago she came to church with a question written on a card, with the promise that God would answer her question at some point during the church service... it happened! Maryna then made the decision to be baptized and after many prayers of faith, she entered into the waters of baptism. Written by Elder Seaman Maryna and Elder Van Rij

    I am so excited that Maryna got baptized! I remember teaching her a few times when I was on exchanges with Zuster Perry in Haarlem. She is one amazing sister! The work just keeps moving forward!
