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!!!

Historic Day in Rotterdam!

Today was history in the making!  There are many Portugese members that live in Rotterdam.  President Jelmer DeJonge, the Stake President of the Rotterdam Stake,  felt the time was right to start a Portugese branch here in Rotterdam.  The Portugese members were so excited to have the entire meeting in their native language.  

We have two missionaries serving in our mission that are from Brazil.  They are now both serving in the Rotterdam zone.  Their help with the Portugese community is a great blessing!  
 Elder Da Cruz and Elder Pelaquim were humbled and honored to be a part of this historic day!

  1. What a memorable day, for our missionaries and for all the portuguese speakers who could worship in their native language. Congrats for the local leadership!

    Um forte abraço a todos.
