He has served as an Area Seventy in the Third Quorum of the Seventy, president of the Brazil Porto Alegre South Mission, counselor in the presidency of the Brazil Missionary Training Center, bishop, elders quorum president, and stake mission president. He was a full-time missionary in the Portugal Lisbon Mission.
Camargo is the first son of Helio da Rocha Camargo, who was the first Brazilian General Authority of the Church of Jesus Christ (he served in the First Quorum of the Seventy and the Second Quorum of the Seventy).
Camargo was born on March 10, 1958, in Sao Paulo, Brazil. He earned a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from the Instituto Militar de Engenharia and a Master of Business Administration degree from Brigham Young University. His career was devoted to educating others and he served with BYU Pathway Worldwide, Universidad Tecnológica de México, and Laureate Brazil Online Education.
He and his wife, Patricia, are the parents of three children.
Camargo and Brad Wilcox, of the Young Men General Presidency, embarked on a four-country ministry of Central Africa in September 2022. They are providing leadership training, strengthening the missionaries, and providing support to members and their families. The leaders are accompanied in their ministry by members of the Africa Central Area Presidency.
“The purpose of our coming to Africa is first to represent the Saviour and share His love with all the members and the leaders here,” Brother Camargo told Africa Newsroom. “Second, it is to help the members see how truly blessed they are to be members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Third, to help them learn about, and live, the gospel of Jesus Christ in their homes and families.” The leaders began their tour with a leader training session in Nairobi, Kenya.
