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!!!

Do We Have To Say Good-Bye?

We were sad to have to say good-bye to these fine valiant missionaries! They will truly be missed! It will be hard to fill their shoes!!! President Brubaker spent the day interviewing each missionary for the last time. He looks forward to this special time he has with each missionary before they depart for home.

Sister Ekstrom, Elder Rayfield, Elder Pinnock, and Elder Bell took a part of our heart with them. Oh, how we love these missionaries! Each of them contributed so much to our mission as they loved the people of Belgium and Holland, and were instrumental in bringing many elect souls to the waters of baptism.

One last meal in the mission home.

    Thank you for taking such awesome care of our daughter, Zuster Ekstrom. She has nothing but great things to say about the Mission and The Netherlands!! It was wonderful to have her home for a couple of days before she headed down to Provo.
