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!!!

Tessa Hetem Joins the Chruch in Alkmaar

Tessa Hetem, Alkmaar, 23 October, 2011

Tessa Hetem went to Utah on an exchange program when she was 16. There she was paired with a Mormon family that had the courage to bring her to church and invite her to meet with the missionaries. She took the discussions for one year before she returned to Alkmaar. There she found the church, continued to study the scriptures and even completed the next two years of Seminary. The Elders came into contact with her for the first time in this part of the world and invited her to be baptized. Now that she is of legal age, she was able to make the decision for herself. Her host family flew from America to be a part of her baptismal service and see the fruit of the seed they’d sown. written by Van De Graff and Elder Nielson
