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!!!

Miriam is Converted to the Gospel through Book of Mormon


Miriam Bijker April 29, 2012
Utrecht

Elder Guanuna, Joachim Muurling, Miriam, and Elder Hansen

Miriam Bijker was raised in a good Christian home, always going to church on Sunday.  As she began to have a feeling that something was to happend in the future, she began searching religions and doing her own research to find an answer.  Then about a year ago she met Joachim Muurling a member of the church, and he told her about the Book of Mormon and shared his testimony with her.  She began to read and couldn’t stop reading. She went to church with Joachim every Sunday.  We then started meeting with her and she told us how she felt good going to church and the warmth and love she felt from the members.  She also told us that she never understood why a person died for her or suffered for her pains and sins; but through the Book of Mormon, she was able to understand the reason why, and grew a great amount of faith in our Savior Jesus Christ.  She received great support from all of the members, especially from the young adults, and finished reading the whole Book of Mormon and received a testimony of this church.  Now she expresses how happy she is, and how happy she is that she was able to find the gospel.
