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!!!

Eternal Friends Find the Gospel in Rotterdam

Tim Gu 7 January, 2012

Rotterdam

Elder Brownell, Li Cong, Tim Gu and Elder Van de Graaff

Tim Gu is a true example of following God. Tim was introduced to the gospel through his Roomate and friend, Li Cong. Tim’s first reaction to the gospel was one of curiosity, but lack of wanting to do anything to know more. Li, however told him about prayer, and one day, Tim’s iPhone broke down. Tim decided to pray to see if it would help. Lo and Behold, It turned on and started working, good as new. Tim was speechless and wanted to know more about the gospel after that. He loved learning about the gospel, and did all that was asked, and he quickly gained a testimony of its truth. He wasn´t ever sure if he wanted to be baptized, however, since that would mean the loss of a Great job in the Chinese government, as a Government officer. His faith was stronger than his desires, because he prayed about it one day, and received a definite answer to be baptized. He was baptized soon after, by Li Cong and has changed his life for the better. Tim is now a faithful honest and brilliant member of the Church of Jesus Christ. We love Tim!
