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!!!

Where ARE Those Missionaries?


Elder Favero extended his mission for an extra week, but now it was time for him to be reunited with his family. He had an early plane to catch.

We came bright and early to take him to the airport. Elder Favero will be greatly missed. Everyday was spent concentrated to the Lord. He was always engaged, and knew from the beginning why he was here. President Brubaker and I felt sad to see him go, but excited for him as he opens a new and exciting chaper of his life!
We were back at the airport a few hours later. We were so excited to receive 10 new missionaries today. A 11:30 am arrival from London didn't happen. To make a very long story short, we waited and waited for them to arrive. Elder Jones and Elder Benson were able to capitalize on this time and had Gospel conversations with people waiting also.
They didn't let the time go to waste. ..... as we waited for the next flight to arrive.
After changed and cancelled flights.....
Elder Mickelson and Elder Crittendon were a little tired of waiting
Elder Salden tried to enlist the help of the police. Where were our missionaries?
We had very tired and exhausted missionaries arrive at 11:30 pm! We were so happy to see the whites of their eyes! We took them to the mission home, fed them and tucked them all into a warm comfortable bed!
We were so happy to have them all arrive safe and sound!
