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!!!

Antwerp Zone President's Training

Last, but not least!  We drove to Antwerp on Friday morning to be with the Antwerp Zone!
We are in Belgium!
The missionaries were all in their seats when we arrived.  We were filled with a peaceful feeling as we heard beautiful hymns being sung as we entered the building.  An unexpected car with a dead battery made us a little late.   The office elders came to the rescue and traded us cars.  
The missionaries were happy to see that we made it.  They were anxious to learn from their president.  

Great missionaries in Antwerp!  Sister Herring, Elder McDaniel, and Elder Kunz are new to the Antwerp Zone!  They love the opportunity to serve in a different country.  We all celebrated our birthdays together today!
Elder Mohrman and Elder Jones play the part of missionaries as they teach Elder Merrill about the plan of salvation.  The missionaries help them learn what they did right and what could be improved upon.  This is the teaching model.  The missionaries then divided up with a different companion to practice.
Elder Mathis and Zuster Herring
Elder McCarlie and Elder Mower learn from each other as they role play.
Effective teachers are always working to improve their knowledge and abilities.
Elder Schow and Sister Nielsen
"Preach the first principles of the Gospel-
Elder Burgess and Elder Leach
preach them over again; you will find that day after day....
Elder Nish and Elder McDaniel
new ideas and additional light concerning them will be revealed to you.
Elder Taylor and Elder Andrews
You can enlarge upon them as as to comprehend them clearly.
Elder Stanley, Elder McCarlie, Elder Schwartz, and Elder Mower
You will then be able to make them more plainly understood.......

The zusters in Antwerp have devised a wonderful plan that fits in with 2-2-5!  They are mapping out every less active on the map, and have enlisted the ward members, elders to help them rescue the "one."
