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!!!

Yvonne is Surrounded by Love From the Young Adults


Yvonne van den Berg, October 22, 2011

Yvonne van den Berg was met by Elder Davies and Elder Ellsworth last February. She loved the Book of Mormon and was excited to learn, but wanted to take a little more time. Yvonne stayed involved with the church, visiting the Young Adult Center and spending time with the young adults. That is where the sisters met her. After spending a week at a young single adult’s camp and attending church, Yvonne was ready to take the step of baptism. Every week she would have a list of scriptures and questions ready so that she could feel prepared. The young adults in the stake helped to answer all of her questions and to overcome her concerns. Yvonne is already a missionary as she shares the gospel with everyone she meets. She told us that the gospel has helped her to find peace, more self confidence, and a better relationship with her Heavenly Father. Yvonne was baptized on the 22nd of October, 2011 and she is already preparing to go the temple. Yvonne is already amazingly strong and we are excited to see her grow even closer to Christ and to her Heavenly Father!!
