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!!!

Family for The 4th of July!

My niece, Rachel Jacob and her son, Ben made an extra effort to come see us!
Rachel and Scott had spent a week with their 4 children in France. After getting the rest of the family back on a plane back to Salt Lake, after a most memorable trip with their family, we were the happy recipients of having them come visit us!
They were just a hop skip and a jump away from the new mission office, when they arrived at the Leiden Train Station!
We had a fun 4th of July celebration at the mission office!
The Tibbitts prepared and all American lunch with American hamburgers, and root beer floats!

A great blessing to be with family! Such a small world-Ben had seminary with
Elder McCarley, who is our financial secretary !
My sister's daughter, Sarah, lives in the Netherlands with her husband Hilbert and their two adorable children. They drove down from Groningen for a little family get together!


It was just too good to be true to have a 4th of July Celebration all together!
President Brubaker had lots of help from Gabriel and Lorenzo!
Gabriel and Lorenzo made this the 4th of July mascot!
We enjoyed our short time with family! We loved every minute we had together!
