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!!!

Bernadette Embraces the Gospel of Jesus Christ


Bernadette van den Bosch, 19 November 2011, Assen


Elder McDaniel, Bernadette, Aswin Loorbach and Elder Ellis

Bernadette is a super nice and sweet lady who makes the missionaries feel good. She has been found through helping the missionaries translate for one of her neighbours. She received the lessons and almost got baptized. When Elder Merrill and I (Elder Ellis) worked in Assen together one of the members gave us Bernadette's number because she just recently ran into Bernadette who had requested that we come over again to teach her. We started coming and she listened to what we said and started progressing in the Gospel. She said that she started being more happy in her life. She was still facing trials trying to hold her back. She kept moving forward in the steadfastness of Christ and made the decision to be baptized. The rest is now history and it was a very beautiful baptismal service. She has felt so much Joy in her life ever since and is very happy. Bernadette is an awesome example of someone following Christ.
