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 Mission is Doubly Blessed


Elder and Sister Tibbitts are serving in our mission and are invaluable help in the office. They are from Provo, Utah and have been with us for a few short months. Elder and Sister Pancratz have given 100% to putting their many talents and abilities in getting our office in tip top shape. They were finally able to go to Amsterdam this week and start an outreach center there. They have been so patient as we waited for the Tibbitts to arrive. With the help of both of these couples we are in GOOD hands!

Sister Tibbitts loves being a missionary again. She served a mission in South Carolina as a young missionary. She was able to spend a day with the sisters in Antwerp.

Here is her experience:



"We had a wonderful day together. I was able to see first-hand what a day in the life of a young missionary was like. We walked a lot, rode a lot of trains, talked to lots of people (on trains, on the street, in apartments, in stores, at the fries place, etc), and taught lessons to investigators and
members. We said a lot of prayers; in
their apartment, on the street, in the train station before and after teaching a lesson, at night, in the morning, before studying, etc. The sisters are positive, outgoing, bold, and love their missions. I am so impressed with all they do. I loved experiencing all of it, including individual study and companion study and language study in the morning. It was a great experience.

The 1st photo is Sister Holbein and Sister Fritz checking the mail, the third photo is Sister Tibbitts and the sisters enjoying Belgium frites for dinner.The last photo is taken in the Antwerp train station of the sisters teaching a lesson.
( the order is a little mixed up.)

Sister Holbein and Sister Fritz are loving everyday day as emissaries for our Savior Jesus Christ. They share with us daily miracles that they are having in Antwerp, as they share the Gospel with God's children. ( miracle story to follow soon)
