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!!!

Our New Missionaries Are Here!

We were up early, and off to the airport to greet the new missionaries! We had 8 new missionaries come in today! They looked nervous, scared and tired! We took them to the office, and trained them, and Scott interviewed each one of them for about 15 minutes each. Then we took them to the mission home, and fed them. They were so excited to finally take a nap!

Elder Harper helped Sister Kohler with her legality papers. Elder Harper has a full time job just making sure our missionaries have all the necessary paper work to be legal in the three countries where we have missionaries. It is a very demanding job, but he has it all figured like clockwork!
After their naps, we took the missioanaries to the dedication sight of our mission in 1998, by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland. It is a very special place, and it was exciting to bring our missionaries to this hallowed and sacred place.
This is the Grand Place of Brussels. The missionaries had their first opportunity to try their proselyting skills here!
Our first meal together in Brussels!

    Take care of that cute Elder Jordan Robert! He is my dear young cousin and I love him so much. I'm praying for your mission. I've been home from my misson 11 years and I miss it so much.

    Tell him his cousin Erin says Hi!
