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!!!

CCM Meeting at Mission Home

We are back! We had much to prepare for the coming week. We started on Sunday with all of the Stake Presidents and the area authority, Elder Boom, all came for their quarterly meeting at the mission home. Sister Boom and I slipped out and went to church in Leiden. I had to take a picture of this poster in the Relief Society room, since it is a Carl Bloch depiction of Christ and the child, reminding us that,
It Is Nice to Be Important
But
It is More Important to Be Nice!
We got back in time to have lunch on the table when they finished their meeting.
These are very dedicated, young stake presidents who give so much to build the church here in the Netherlands and Belgium. Their wives and children are so supportive!
