Sao Paulo Temple

Today we had the opportunity to attend the Sao Paulo Temple.  It was really neat to all be there together again.  We did initiatories because we had to be at the sealing of a member Cameron knew at 12:30.  All the temple workers were really nice and we even met the temple president.  We went to the temple sealing and Cameron got to be a witness!  It was sad because the couple's family wasn't there but they had some friends there as support.  The Sao Paulo temple is very beautiful with dark wood and beautiful stain glass.  After the temple we headed out to Lorena, another area Cameron served in.  We went to some members house and had the most delicious BBQ I've ever had!  It was fun because they let us help prepare some of the food and I learned how to make some delicious Brazilian rice and a yummy Brazilian dessert called Brigedara (sp? I'll have to check on that spelling!).  The food was seriously amazing and the family was absolutely wonderful!  I really enjoyed spending time with them.  The father of the family is a contractor so Sergio, my Dad, and Jared talked forever about construction and it was pretty funny to watch them!  It was probably at least an hour they were talking about it all!  We then went and met a family that Cameron baptized the mom of the family and a couple of the boys.  The father was already a member.  She was a spit fire and so excited to see Cameron!  She was baptized one week, confirmed the next week and that same day was called to be the 2nd counselor in the Relief Society!  I bet that was pretty overwhelming!  We visited one teenager that Cam played soccer with while on his mission and it was really cute because he was wearing Cameron's High school jersey that he had given him.  We made the long trek back late that night but it was a really fun day and fun to get to know some of the people in Lorena.
