00:00:01.56\00:00:07.64
Mending broken people
00:00:07.67\00:00:12.54
I want to spend my life
00:00:12.57\00:00:18.78
Removing pain
00:00:18.81\00:00:23.85
Lord, let my words
00:00:23.95\00:00:29.99
Heal a heart that hurts
00:00:30.03\00:00:34.50
I want to spend my life
00:00:34.56\00:00:40.37
Mending broken people
00:00:40.40\00:00:45.74
I want to spend my life
00:00:45.77\00:00:51.31
Mending broken people
00:00:51.35\00:00:54.98
Hello, I'm Shelley Quinn
and we welcome you once again
00:01:11.27\00:01:14.87
to the 3ABN Today program
00:01:14.90\00:01:16.67
at the Mending
Broken People Network.
00:01:16.71\00:01:18.81
And you know what?
00:01:18.84\00:01:20.24
You are the ones who
make it possible for us
00:01:20.28\00:01:23.14
to mend broken people.
00:01:23.18\00:01:25.05
Of course, we give
all the glory to God.
00:01:25.08\00:01:27.38
But we want to
thank you for your love,
00:01:27.48\00:01:29.25
and your prayers,
00:01:29.28\00:01:30.65
and your financial
support of this ministry
00:01:30.75\00:01:32.79
because without
you, we wouldn't be here.
00:01:32.82\00:01:35.86
And I believe with all my heart,
00:01:35.89\00:01:38.43
this not hyperbole,
00:01:38.46\00:01:40.36
but I believe that 3ABN
00:01:40.46\00:01:42.66
is one of the
greatest evangelistic tools
00:01:42.70\00:01:45.53
in the hands of the Lord today.
00:01:45.57\00:01:47.47
And we see how God is
using it around the world
00:01:47.50\00:01:51.84
to draw people to Jesus Christ.
00:01:51.87\00:01:55.41
Well, I am not going to read
the Bible scripture just now.
00:01:55.44\00:02:00.52
What I would like to do is
introduce you to our guest,
00:02:00.55\00:02:03.99
because we have a
fascinating testimony today
00:02:04.02\00:02:07.89
with a
fascinating and inspiring man.
00:02:07.92\00:02:11.13
He is a maestro.
00:02:11.16\00:02:13.16
He is a classical
violinist conductor.
00:02:13.19\00:02:18.80
But he has got a
heart for the Lord
00:02:18.83\00:02:21.97
and he's
constantly giving back to God.
00:02:22.00\00:02:25.31
So without further ado,
00:02:25.34\00:02:27.14
let me introduce
you to Dr. Paulo Torres.
00:02:27.18\00:02:30.91
Dr. Torres, thank you
so much for being here.
00:02:30.95\00:02:33.98
It's my great
pleasure to be here.
00:02:34.02\00:02:35.45
I thank you.
00:02:35.48\00:02:36.85
And you are Brazilian,
00:02:36.89\00:02:38.22
so your native
language is Portuguese?
00:02:38.25\00:02:40.22
Correct.
00:02:40.26\00:02:41.59
And how long have you
been speaking English?
00:02:41.62\00:02:45.03
Did you learn that as a child?
00:02:45.06\00:02:47.66
At school in Brazil,
00:02:47.66\00:02:49.23
we are required to
learn a second language.
00:02:49.26\00:02:52.20
And I chose English.
00:02:52.23\00:02:53.57
Some people
choose French or Spanish.
00:02:53.67\00:02:56.64
And my dream was
to speak the language
00:02:56.67\00:02:59.67
and I would
search every American
00:02:59.71\00:03:02.28
on the streets and
say, "How do you say this?
00:03:02.31\00:03:04.71
How do you say that?
How do you express this?"
00:03:04.75\00:03:07.02
And they will think
that was funny, you know,
00:03:07.05\00:03:08.95
but I started learning
little by little like that.
00:03:08.98\00:03:11.62
And when I got invited
to come to America to study,
00:03:11.65\00:03:15.29
I took a 28 day
course in English.
00:03:15.32\00:03:18.76
That was it.
00:03:18.79\00:03:20.20
And I came, I went
straight into college
00:03:20.30\00:03:22.76
and I got 8 As, 1 B and
1 C in my first quarter.
00:03:22.80\00:03:27.40
It was tough.
00:03:27.44\00:03:28.77
That's amazing.
00:03:28.80\00:03:30.14
What we'd like to
do, we always have music,
00:03:30.17\00:03:32.94
we know how you love music.
00:03:32.97\00:03:35.04
So I'm gonna cut you
loose for just a minute
00:03:35.08\00:03:37.41
and we are going to
have Dr. Torres play for us,
00:03:37.45\00:03:41.75
so that you can see
and witness the gift
00:03:41.78\00:03:46.55
that God has given him.
00:03:46.59\00:03:49.09
He is an incredible musician.
00:03:49.12\00:03:52.19
And he is now
going to play for us
00:03:52.23\00:03:54.13
with our very own ET Everett
00:03:54.20\00:03:56.70
will be
accompanying him on the piano,
00:03:56.73\00:03:59.07
but he will
play, "Amazing Grace."
00:03:59.10\00:04:01.70
Isn't that beautiful?
00:06:40.90\00:06:42.20
You know, the Bible says,
00:06:42.23\00:06:43.73
actually these are the words
of the Lord in Jeremiah 29:11.
00:06:43.83\00:06:47.84
He says, "I know the
thoughts that I have for you, '
00:06:47.87\00:06:51.21
says the Lord,
00:06:51.24\00:06:52.57
'thoughts of peace
00:06:52.61\00:06:53.94
and not of evil to give
you a future, and a hope.' "
00:06:54.04\00:06:59.25
And we certainly sometimes think
00:06:59.28\00:07:01.85
that we know what
we would like to do,
00:07:01.88\00:07:04.92
but God pulls us along.
00:07:04.95\00:07:08.26
And when we stay in
the center of His will,
00:07:08.29\00:07:10.56
it is amazing
00:07:10.59\00:07:12.43
how God leads us on a path
00:07:12.46\00:07:15.90
that is so much
greater than what we thought.
00:07:15.93\00:07:19.37
Dr. Torres? Yes.
00:07:19.40\00:07:21.40
You told me I can call you Paulo
00:07:21.44\00:07:23.17
if I say it, right?
00:07:23.20\00:07:25.81
Tell us just a little bit
00:07:25.84\00:07:27.74
what it was like
00:07:27.78\00:07:29.11
as a boy growing up in Brazil?
00:07:29.14\00:07:32.65
We lived in the country.
00:07:32.68\00:07:35.18
And my father had absolutely
almost every animal and bird
00:07:35.22\00:07:39.35
you can imagine.
00:07:39.39\00:07:41.02
So growing in nature,
00:07:41.06\00:07:43.22
in midst of all
of the God's creation
00:07:43.26\00:07:46.43
was so wonderful
00:07:46.46\00:07:47.83
that inspired me very young age
00:07:47.86\00:07:50.73
to be a servant to the Lord.
00:07:50.83\00:07:53.10
I want to be a prophet.
00:07:53.13\00:07:54.47
So you were in a
Christian family?
00:07:54.50\00:07:55.84
Yes, my family was
Seventh-day Adventist,
00:07:55.87\00:07:59.74
since my birth.
00:07:59.77\00:08:01.41
And I had this great
aspiration of serving the Lord.
00:08:01.44\00:08:07.25
Not only as a pastor,
I want to be a prophet,
00:08:07.28\00:08:09.55
I want to have
visions, I want...
00:08:09.58\00:08:11.39
So I would go
outside with my Bible,
00:08:11.42\00:08:14.39
and I would sit
down on the grass,
00:08:14.42\00:08:17.16
lay down, look at the sky.
00:08:17.19\00:08:18.76
My dream was to have glass cover
00:08:18.79\00:08:23.77
that I could spend all
night looking at the stars.
00:08:23.80\00:08:26.43
And during the day I
would read the Bible,
00:08:26.47\00:08:28.14
and I'd pray to the Lord.
00:08:28.17\00:08:30.31
And that was a
beautiful moment in my life.
00:08:30.34\00:08:33.48
I really
00:08:33.51\00:08:34.98
have fantastic
memories about that.
00:08:35.01\00:08:37.65
I have three sisters,
00:08:37.68\00:08:40.72
and they would be
very musical practicing.
00:08:40.75\00:08:44.89
And so I was also
surrounded by music,
00:08:44.92\00:08:48.52
and by nature, and it was great.
00:08:48.56\00:08:50.83
God gave me a great blessing.
00:08:50.93\00:08:52.86
That is wonderful.
00:08:52.89\00:08:54.30
Now, you grew up
in a musical family,
00:08:54.30\00:08:56.23
a Christian family.
00:08:56.26\00:08:57.87
I believe you told me
00:08:57.90\00:08:59.23
that everybody played the piano.
00:08:59.27\00:09:00.77
How did you choose the violin?
00:09:00.87\00:09:05.34
For two reasons.
00:09:05.37\00:09:06.71
First of all, I
couldn't withstand
00:09:06.81\00:09:08.14
hearing piano any longer.
00:09:08.18\00:09:10.18
Every sister would practice
three hours of scales...
00:09:10.21\00:09:14.62
And then the next...
00:09:14.65\00:09:16.72
When the third one was
almost finished, I said,
00:09:16.75\00:09:18.42
"I can't stand piano any longer.
00:09:18.45\00:09:19.82
Mom, give me
another instrument."
00:09:19.85\00:09:22.22
And right then we
lived by a college,
00:09:22.26\00:09:24.36
by Seventh-day
Adventist college,
00:09:24.39\00:09:26.49
which was called
Institute Adventist
00:09:26.53\00:09:28.73
the Paranaense.
00:09:28.76\00:09:30.37
That is,
00:09:30.47\00:09:33.94
it was the college that
was very close to my home
00:09:34.04\00:09:37.84
and they were high on teachers
to bring music into the school.
00:09:37.87\00:09:43.45
And came my violin teacher
00:09:43.48\00:09:46.25
and they said,
"Look, Catalina, "
00:09:46.28\00:09:48.32
my mom,
00:09:48.35\00:09:49.68
"would you like
your son to study violin?
00:09:49.72\00:09:51.55
We have a new teacher."
00:09:51.59\00:09:52.92
And she says, "Yes, I think
we will have him doing that."
00:09:52.95\00:09:56.06
So I went and I play for
him, and he started teaching me.
00:09:56.09\00:10:00.50
In three months,
00:10:00.53\00:10:01.90
I auditioned for
the school of music
00:10:01.93\00:10:03.43
and fine arts in the city.
00:10:03.47\00:10:05.80
And I was
accepted in as a student
00:10:05.83\00:10:10.97
because you have to
go through a selection
00:10:11.01\00:10:13.44
to be student there.
00:10:13.54\00:10:15.41
And that was came out very fast.
00:10:15.44\00:10:18.88
But thanks to my mom,
she was very disciplined.
00:10:18.91\00:10:21.78
And when I would stop practicing
00:10:21.82\00:10:23.45
for about 15 minutes
00:10:23.49\00:10:24.82
she would say,
"Paulo, why did you stop?"
00:10:24.85\00:10:27.42
I said, "I've learned lesson."
00:10:27.46\00:10:29.29
She says, "No, you
got to do it again."
00:10:29.32\00:10:31.86
So I would
practice another 15 minutes.
00:10:31.89\00:10:34.73
And she would say, "You stopped?
00:10:34.76\00:10:36.60
Why?
00:10:36.63\00:10:37.97
You should continue."
00:10:38.00\00:10:39.33
"Mom, I have
learned the lesson."
00:10:39.37\00:10:40.70
"Well, learn next lesson.
00:10:40.74\00:10:42.07
So when the teacher,
you come to your class,
00:10:42.10\00:10:44.24
you'll have even more."
00:10:44.27\00:10:45.61
So she insisted on that.
00:10:45.64\00:10:47.51
And that was very good
00:10:47.54\00:10:48.88
because in
three years of violin,
00:10:48.91\00:10:50.88
when people
usually scratch and still,
00:10:50.91\00:10:54.15
I was concert
master of small orchestra
00:10:54.25\00:10:57.42
in the big city.
00:10:57.45\00:10:59.12
And with five years
of violin practicing,
00:10:59.15\00:11:01.79
I was the concert master
00:11:01.82\00:11:03.53
of one of the most famous
international music festivals
00:11:03.56\00:11:07.40
in Brazil encompass
de Janeiro and Sao Paulo.
00:11:07.50\00:11:10.13
And that's when I was
invited to come to America.
00:11:10.17\00:11:13.13
So take us
through your schooling
00:11:13.17\00:11:16.47
and we want...
00:11:16.50\00:11:18.24
He's going to play several hymns
00:11:18.27\00:11:20.74
for us today.
00:11:20.84\00:11:22.18
But we just wanted to get
one classical piece in there.
00:11:22.21\00:11:26.01
You came to the United States
to get your masters at Andrews?
00:11:26.05\00:11:30.95
Correct.
00:11:30.99\00:11:32.32
But before that,
00:11:32.35\00:11:33.72
I came to get my college degree.
00:11:33.76\00:11:35.19
Oh, you came here for
your college degree, okay.
00:11:35.22\00:11:36.56
Yeah, I came from my college
00:11:36.59\00:11:38.63
and the conductor that offer,
I had several invitations.
00:11:38.66\00:11:43.13
But Dr. James Wattenbarger
00:11:43.16\00:11:45.57
from Tennessee
Technological University said,
00:11:45.60\00:11:48.77
"Paulo, if you
come to my university,
00:11:48.80\00:11:51.51
you'll help us a lot
with all your knowledge,
00:11:51.54\00:11:54.48
your music playing,
00:11:54.51\00:11:56.08
and we'll give you
full tuition and fees,
00:11:56.11\00:11:58.45
we'll let you live
in a fraternity house,
00:11:58.48\00:12:01.12
cost free.
00:12:01.15\00:12:02.58
And you will audition
to the symphony orchestra."
00:12:02.62\00:12:04.52
And I did audition
00:12:04.55\00:12:06.22
for Nashville
Symphony Orchestra.
00:12:06.25\00:12:08.39
And I did some
recording in the studios
00:12:08.42\00:12:10.93
in Nashville.
00:12:10.96\00:12:12.29
I also played at
Grand Ole Opry House.
00:12:12.33\00:12:14.20
And it was a
way of sustaining me
00:12:14.30\00:12:17.63
because my parents
didn't have financial ways,
00:12:17.67\00:12:21.70
means of maintaining me here.
00:12:21.74\00:12:23.37
Well, I'll bet
00:12:23.47\00:12:24.81
that the
English you had practice
00:12:24.84\00:12:26.37
sounded very
different in Tennessee.
00:12:26.41\00:12:29.78
It did.
00:12:29.81\00:12:31.15
So you went then to
Andrews for your masters.
00:12:31.18\00:12:34.35
Where did you
get your doctorate?
00:12:34.38\00:12:36.42
Okay.
00:12:36.45\00:12:37.79
Because close to
Andrews we have Michigan State.
00:12:37.82\00:12:40.32
Yes.
00:12:40.42\00:12:41.76
So what I was doing is,
00:12:41.79\00:12:43.26
I had a
scholarship for only two years
00:12:43.29\00:12:45.26
from the Brazilian government.
00:12:45.29\00:12:47.46
So I started
taking doctoral courses
00:12:47.50\00:12:51.40
at the same time I
was doing my masters.
00:12:51.43\00:12:54.17
And I was sending to Brazil,
00:12:54.20\00:12:56.27
the fees and they accepted
and they were paying for it.
00:12:56.30\00:12:59.11
So when the two
years had finished,
00:12:59.14\00:13:01.14
I was already on my doctoral.
00:13:01.18\00:13:03.08
I had finished Andrews
00:13:03.11\00:13:04.85
and I asked for an
extension of two more years,
00:13:04.88\00:13:07.75
and I was able to
00:13:07.78\00:13:09.32
then finish my
doctoral in only two years
00:13:09.35\00:13:11.69
at Michigan State.
00:13:11.72\00:13:13.46
And more than that I
wanted to take classes
00:13:13.49\00:13:16.22
with the best
teachers at the moment
00:13:16.26\00:13:18.29
and conducting was
Gustav Meier, great name.
00:13:18.33\00:13:21.46
Yes.
00:13:21.50\00:13:22.83
And I studied with him
00:13:22.86\00:13:24.23
at Ann Arbor
University of Michigan.
00:13:24.27\00:13:26.07
And with Nelli Shkolnikova,
00:13:26.10\00:13:27.84
I took classes at
Indiana, Bloomington.
00:13:27.87\00:13:30.67
So I would commute
every week to Ann Arbor
00:13:30.77\00:13:33.44
and all the way
down to Bloomington
00:13:33.54\00:13:36.48
that was almost six hours
going and come back of trip.
00:13:36.51\00:13:40.18
And, but it was very worth it.
00:13:40.22\00:13:43.65
Yes. Certainly worth it.
00:13:43.69\00:13:45.02
Well, before then we go further,
00:13:45.05\00:13:46.72
we want to have him do
one classical piece for us.
00:13:46.82\00:13:50.69
And this is something
you will probably recognize
00:13:50.73\00:13:56.06
and it is a piece
called "Meditation."
00:13:56.10\00:13:58.43
Well, that was Dr.
Paulo Torres playing,
00:18:32.47\00:18:35.68
being accompanied
by Dr. Vernon Gordon.
00:18:35.71\00:18:40.12
And Dr. Gordon is
actually classically trained
00:18:40.22\00:18:43.79
as a pianist,
00:18:43.89\00:18:45.22
but he is a dentist
00:18:45.25\00:18:47.16
and he goes to
the Palm Coast Church
00:18:47.26\00:18:50.73
with Paulo.
00:18:50.76\00:18:52.09
Correct.
00:18:52.13\00:18:53.46
And so we're so
glad he came up here.
00:18:53.50\00:18:54.83
It was really
lovely to have him here.
00:18:54.83\00:18:56.73
You've actually
started a program
00:18:56.83\00:18:59.13
that's kind of interesting
at your church in Palm Coast?
00:18:59.17\00:19:02.97
Yes, I convinced the pastor,
00:19:03.00\00:19:04.94
well, it wasn't
hard to convince him.
00:19:04.97\00:19:06.51
He wanted
something special with music.
00:19:06.54\00:19:09.84
And I started an
orchestra, a string orchestra.
00:19:09.88\00:19:14.55
And what we did is we
invited all the parents
00:19:14.58\00:19:18.32
to bring their children
who are interested in music.
00:19:18.35\00:19:21.36
They never play...
00:19:21.39\00:19:22.72
Most of them never
played an instrument.
00:19:22.76\00:19:24.93
And we rented
instruments for them.
00:19:24.96\00:19:28.30
And then the parents
came, we had a meeting,
00:19:28.33\00:19:30.77
and I said, "But
there's one thing
00:19:30.87\00:19:32.77
I would like you to do.
00:19:32.80\00:19:34.50
I would like one of
the parents at least,
00:19:34.54\00:19:36.81
to play in the
orchestra with their child,
00:19:36.84\00:19:40.18
because that
will help the child,
00:19:40.21\00:19:42.41
you will stimulate
the child and also,
00:19:42.44\00:19:44.75
it will clear all the doubts
00:19:44.78\00:19:46.11
because an adult
will learn faster.
00:19:46.15\00:19:48.55
And when you get
home the child will ask,
00:19:48.58\00:19:50.49
"Mom, Daddy, how do
you hold instrument?
00:19:50.59\00:19:53.02
And mom and daddy
may say, "I don't know.
00:19:53.05\00:19:54.59
Ask next week."
00:19:54.62\00:19:55.96
So that way, the
parents right there,
00:19:55.99\00:19:57.86
and it's we had
an amazing result
00:19:57.89\00:20:00.20
in 30 hours of rehearsing,
00:20:00.30\00:20:02.96
we gave our first
concert playing only hymns
00:20:03.00\00:20:05.90
at the church with
35 member orchestra.
00:20:05.93\00:20:09.34
Praise the Lord!
00:20:09.37\00:20:10.77
And you know
something that I'm convinced
00:20:10.81\00:20:13.64
that when children
learn an instrument
00:20:13.68\00:20:15.84
and learn music ministry,
00:20:15.88\00:20:18.01
it really solidifies them
00:20:18.05\00:20:20.88
as far as their attraction,
00:20:20.92\00:20:22.95
their bond to the church.
00:20:22.98\00:20:24.49
I think there's something
very special about music.
00:20:24.52\00:20:27.32
Now, you have been on
television how many times?
00:20:27.36\00:20:32.03
Do you have any idea as a
conductor and a violinist?
00:20:32.06\00:20:34.86
Hundreds of times.
00:20:34.93\00:20:36.46
Hundreds of times... Just, yeah.
00:20:36.50\00:20:39.30
You have recorded
over 10,000 tracks.
00:20:39.33\00:20:43.34
My question to you though,
00:20:43.37\00:20:45.61
is as a violinist,
00:20:45.64\00:20:49.98
as a conductor,
00:20:50.08\00:20:51.95
as a Seventh-day
Adventist Christian,
00:20:51.98\00:20:54.58
how did you work this?
00:20:54.62\00:20:56.05
I mean, how did
you honor the Sabbath?
00:20:56.08\00:20:59.89
Because quite often,
00:21:00.06\00:21:02.36
the Sabbath is an issue
for when we're having concerts?
00:21:02.39\00:21:06.80
Correct. You're
absolutely right.
00:21:06.90\00:21:09.53
At the moment,
00:21:09.56\00:21:10.93
we have in some of our colleges,
00:21:10.97\00:21:13.40
Seventh-day Adventist college,
00:21:13.44\00:21:15.14
we do have some orchestras,
00:21:15.17\00:21:17.27
but professional big
orchestras in Brazil.
00:21:17.31\00:21:20.44
I think I was the
only Seventh-day Adventist
00:21:20.54\00:21:24.21
in the orchestras in Brazil,
00:21:24.25\00:21:26.98
professionally playing
and keeping the Sabbath.
00:21:27.02\00:21:30.15
And that brought several...
00:21:30.19\00:21:32.45
Challenges. Challenges.
00:21:32.49\00:21:34.69
Some of them naturally,
00:21:34.72\00:21:36.09
I had to renounce
not accept invitations
00:21:36.12\00:21:39.76
because they were immovable,
00:21:39.79\00:21:42.16
they cannot negotiate,
00:21:42.20\00:21:44.33
but many others,
00:21:44.37\00:21:46.47
I was able to
negotiate with God's grace.
00:21:46.50\00:21:49.37
God opened the doors,
00:21:49.40\00:21:51.24
and I was able to
testify with my beliefs
00:21:51.27\00:21:56.28
on the Sabbath.
00:21:56.31\00:21:57.68
And I think my colleagues
00:21:57.71\00:22:02.02
will remember
forever this situation
00:22:02.05\00:22:05.69
and that which were
presented in a dress rehearsal
00:22:05.72\00:22:09.59
with a guest conductor,
00:22:09.62\00:22:11.56
being there in my
chair as principal violinist
00:22:11.59\00:22:15.66
being emptied
during the Sabbath.
00:22:15.70\00:22:18.50
And
00:22:18.53\00:22:21.24
people sometimes get angry
00:22:21.27\00:22:24.97
because others
have certain things
00:22:25.01\00:22:26.84
that they don't and
they were not allowed
00:22:26.88\00:22:29.54
to miss any rehearsals.
00:22:29.58\00:22:31.21
But I was
because when I auditioned
00:22:31.25\00:22:34.42
to this Parana
State Symphony Orchestra,
00:22:34.45\00:22:36.65
I told them I was the
Seventh-day Adventist.
00:22:36.69\00:22:38.72
And I would keep my Sabbath.
00:22:38.75\00:22:40.12
Then they said,
"Now we want to hire you.
00:22:40.16\00:22:41.49
You're definitely
the best musician,
00:22:41.52\00:22:43.79
we know in the auditions,
00:22:43.83\00:22:45.93
you can come, we will
give you the Sabbath."
00:22:45.96\00:22:48.63
And that created
a certain deficient
00:22:48.66\00:22:50.40
in the orchestra
00:22:50.43\00:22:51.77
because they
couldn't miss a rehearsal,
00:22:51.80\00:22:53.13
I would miss the most
important of reversals.
00:22:53.17\00:22:55.54
So after a couple
of years working there,
00:22:55.57\00:22:59.27
I was sued by the
theater I worked for
00:22:59.31\00:23:04.51
because of keeping the Sabbath.
00:23:04.55\00:23:06.92
And three lawyers from the state
00:23:07.02\00:23:09.52
were called to
decide in my case,
00:23:09.55\00:23:12.09
and they
interviewed 30 witnesses,
00:23:12.12\00:23:15.52
including
conductors, guest conductors.
00:23:15.56\00:23:18.09
And they all testify
00:23:18.13\00:23:19.46
that I was
faithful to my church,
00:23:19.49\00:23:21.06
I was faithful to the orchestra.
00:23:21.10\00:23:22.96
And I had a moral agreement
00:23:23.00\00:23:25.43
when I first came
into the orchestra,
00:23:25.47\00:23:27.90
so that should be respected.
00:23:27.94\00:23:29.97
And I won the case.
00:23:30.01\00:23:32.27
And many other
situations happened like that.
00:23:32.31\00:23:36.28
Invitations,
00:23:36.31\00:23:37.71
very important invitations,
00:23:37.75\00:23:39.08
like I conducted
00:23:39.11\00:23:40.92
the rehearsals
for all the tenors
00:23:40.95\00:23:43.75
of Andrea Bocelli in Brazil,
00:23:43.79\00:23:45.99
he is a very
famous tenor singer.
00:23:46.02\00:23:48.66
And one of the dress rehearsals
was on the Sabbath hour.
00:23:48.69\00:23:53.36
And I told his production
00:23:53.40\00:23:55.10
that I could not
rehearse until 6 o'clock,
00:23:55.13\00:23:57.87
which was the
sundown that night.
00:23:57.90\00:24:00.84
And we had 150
people on the stage.
00:24:00.87\00:24:04.31
And they went and
talk to production
00:24:04.34\00:24:05.71
and they said, well,
00:24:05.74\00:24:08.81
Master Paulo Torres said,
00:24:08.84\00:24:10.65
"He's a Sabbath keeper,
00:24:10.68\00:24:13.01
and he will not
start until 6 o'clock.
00:24:13.05\00:24:15.38
So what do we do?"
00:24:15.42\00:24:17.59
And they said,
"Well, let's wait for that.
00:24:17.62\00:24:19.65
Let's respect."
00:24:19.69\00:24:21.09
And it was...
00:24:21.12\00:24:22.92
The time is money
in those situations.
00:24:22.96\00:24:24.93
Well, they had 15,000
people waiting to see the show,
00:24:24.96\00:24:27.96
several soloists,
150 people in the stage,
00:24:27.96\00:24:31.10
and they waited until sundown.
00:24:31.13\00:24:32.47
Praise God! Yeah.
00:24:32.50\00:24:34.00
Isn't that amazing,
00:24:34.04\00:24:35.80
when you honor
God and put Him first,
00:24:35.84\00:24:39.81
how God honors you?
00:24:39.84\00:24:41.94
Yeah.
00:24:41.98\00:24:44.38
It is something
we're going to ask you,
00:24:44.41\00:24:46.31
if you will to
grab your violin again.
00:24:46.35\00:24:48.45
Okay.
00:24:48.48\00:24:49.82
And we'll have him
play, "Holy, holy, holy."
00:24:49.85\00:24:53.05
This is something that
only God can make a day holy,
00:24:53.09\00:24:59.23
and He did make the Sabbath holy
00:24:59.26\00:25:02.56
and when we honor His
holy day, He honors us.
00:25:02.60\00:25:07.24
Oh, amen.
00:28:05.65\00:28:07.05
That was one of
those two hander's
00:28:07.08\00:28:08.72
and mama's take heart.
00:28:08.75\00:28:11.22
You see that Dr.
Paulo Torres again
00:28:11.25\00:28:13.89
he was accompanied by
Dr. Vernon Gordon on that.
00:28:13.92\00:28:17.36
But his mama had him practice
00:28:17.39\00:28:20.23
more than just
to learn the song,
00:28:20.26\00:28:21.83
but the next lesson as well.
00:28:21.86\00:28:23.97
So when you're
listening to the scratching,
00:28:24.00\00:28:26.57
take heart and
keep your children
00:28:26.60\00:28:29.27
focused on the prize
00:28:29.30\00:28:31.11
because certainly
00:28:31.14\00:28:32.47
God can use it for His glory.
00:28:32.51\00:28:35.91
Thank you so much for
that beautiful song, Paulo.
00:28:35.94\00:28:39.45
Praise the Lord.
00:28:39.48\00:28:40.92
You arrived in
the States in 2016.
00:28:40.95\00:28:44.32
But I want to go back
00:28:44.35\00:28:45.69
because I know
you brought a video.
00:28:45.72\00:28:47.06
So let's go back to Brazil.
00:28:47.16\00:28:49.36
You've had an
amazing professional career
00:28:49.39\00:28:53.50
as a violinist
and the conductor.
00:28:53.53\00:28:56.53
But you always want
to give back to the Lord
00:28:56.63\00:29:00.47
because the little boy
who prayed to be a prophet
00:29:00.50\00:29:04.24
is actually
become a prophetic...
00:29:04.27\00:29:09.84
Deliverer of
prophetic messages in music,
00:29:09.88\00:29:12.51
let me put it that way.
00:29:12.55\00:29:14.05
Tell us about
what you were doing
00:29:14.08\00:29:15.85
in the
hospitals there in Brazil?
00:29:15.88\00:29:18.15
It all started
00:29:18.19\00:29:19.52
when I was
visiting an aunt of mine.
00:29:19.55\00:29:23.12
And she was ill at a hospital
00:29:23.16\00:29:24.93
and the name of the
hospital was St. Clair.
00:29:24.96\00:29:27.76
And as I'm playing for her,
00:29:27.83\00:29:30.57
I could notice
00:29:30.67\00:29:32.40
that several patients
were coming out in the hall,
00:29:32.43\00:29:35.44
trying to see what was going on.
00:29:35.47\00:29:37.81
And they expressed their
wish to listen to music also.
00:29:37.84\00:29:42.18
So I said, "As soon
as they play for her,
00:29:42.21\00:29:45.85
I'll play for you."
00:29:45.88\00:29:47.22
So then I started
going room by room
00:29:47.32\00:29:48.95
and playing for the patients,
00:29:48.98\00:29:50.89
until I got to a girl's
room and she was just sleeping.
00:29:50.92\00:29:54.59
And her mom was in her
bedside with a Bible open
00:29:54.62\00:29:57.66
and she seemed to be praying.
00:29:57.69\00:29:59.26
And I walked in and I said,
00:29:59.29\00:30:01.33
"May I pray with you
00:30:01.36\00:30:03.83
and could I play
also the violin?"
00:30:03.87\00:30:06.80
They said, "Yes, please do it."
00:30:06.84\00:30:08.17
And so we prayed and
I play one of the hymns,
00:30:08.20\00:30:14.24
which is "How Great Thou Art."
00:30:14.28\00:30:17.31
And a minute and a half past
00:30:17.41\00:30:18.98
and the girl opened up
her eyes and she looked around
00:30:19.01\00:30:22.75
and she was unable to,
try to speak but she couldn't.
00:30:22.78\00:30:26.39
Only guttural sounds
came out of her throat.
00:30:26.42\00:30:29.99
And her mom
started screaming to cry
00:30:30.03\00:30:34.36
and yell and nurses rushed in
00:30:34.40\00:30:36.90
and I got goose
bumps and scared.
00:30:37.00\00:30:38.73
What did I do?
00:30:38.77\00:30:40.17
What have I done is
as I'm walking away,
00:30:40.20\00:30:42.17
her mom grabs me on the arm.
00:30:42.20\00:30:44.61
And I said, "What
did I do? What happened?"
00:30:44.64\00:30:47.31
And she very emotionally
looked at me and says,
00:30:47.41\00:30:49.71
"My daughter was in
coma for three years.
00:30:49.74\00:30:53.55
And she woke up with the music."
00:30:53.58\00:30:56.05
I said, "Praise the Lord!"
00:30:56.08\00:30:59.02
And that day
00:30:59.05\00:31:00.46
I decided to be an
instrument in the hands of God
00:31:00.56\00:31:02.82
with my violin.
00:31:02.86\00:31:04.23
I hope everyone understood that
00:31:04.26\00:31:06.90
for three years
she was in a coma,
00:31:06.93\00:31:09.86
and when you played,
"How great Thou art",
00:31:09.90\00:31:13.30
she responded
and opened her eyes.
00:31:13.34\00:31:15.80
God woke her,
obviously. God woke her up.
00:31:15.84\00:31:17.87
How indeed, how
great Thou art, Lord.
00:31:17.91\00:31:22.21
So...
00:31:22.24\00:31:23.61
And then I started
00:31:23.65\00:31:24.98
to visit the
hospital every week and play.
00:31:25.01\00:31:26.88
Yeah, I guess.
00:31:26.92\00:31:28.25
And miracles have
happened, amazing stories.
00:31:28.28\00:31:31.65
Like for
instance, there was a girl,
00:31:31.69\00:31:33.12
she was in deep depression.
00:31:33.15\00:31:35.39
For two months, she
didn't eat any longer
00:31:35.42\00:31:37.49
and she was only on
intravenous, IV, right?
00:31:37.53\00:31:42.93
And, I came in and
I said to her mother,
00:31:42.96\00:31:47.47
"Can I play for her?"
00:31:47.50\00:31:48.84
"Yes, she's depressed."
00:31:48.87\00:31:50.21
They say, "Well,
play something happy."
00:31:50.24\00:31:51.57
So I play, "One of the
Seasons, Vivaldi's Four Seasons,
00:31:51.61\00:31:54.31
the Spring."
00:31:54.34\00:31:58.98
And halfway the song,
00:31:59.01\00:32:02.25
the girl sitting up on the bed,
00:32:02.28\00:32:04.79
and because she
was in catatonic state
00:32:04.82\00:32:07.66
and her mouth was
open, her eyes were closed.
00:32:07.69\00:32:10.23
And she opened her eyes.
00:32:10.26\00:32:11.59
She closed her
mouth to sit down,
00:32:11.63\00:32:12.96
she started to
move in the chair.
00:32:12.99\00:32:15.26
And by the time I
finished the music,
00:32:15.30\00:32:16.93
I'd look at her mom and asked,
"What is your daughter's name?"
00:32:17.03\00:32:21.04
Because she wasn't
even talking any longer.
00:32:21.07\00:32:23.77
And the girl
looked at me and said,
00:32:23.81\00:32:25.14
"My name is Elizabeth."
00:32:25.17\00:32:26.64
I saw Elizabeth,
"Oh, I'm so glad,
00:32:26.68\00:32:29.54
you feel good with the music.
00:32:29.58\00:32:31.51
Well, I wish, well
may the Lord be with you."
00:32:31.55\00:32:33.48
And I left the room.
00:32:33.58\00:32:34.92
As I leave, two nurses
are rushing towards the room.
00:32:34.95\00:32:37.95
And I said, "What happened?"
00:32:37.99\00:32:39.35
And they said,
"Elizabeth called,
00:32:39.39\00:32:40.99
she want us to help
her get up from the bed.
00:32:41.02\00:32:43.89
She wants to walk through
the halls of the hospital."
00:32:43.99\00:32:46.96
Glory to God!
00:32:47.00\00:32:48.30
So the music brought
her out of the depression.
00:32:48.33\00:32:50.80
Glory to God!
00:32:50.90\00:32:52.23
But even more amazing things
that I will always remember
00:32:52.27\00:32:55.87
are patients in their
terminal stage, for instance,
00:32:55.90\00:32:59.57
that they listen to the music
00:32:59.61\00:33:01.38
and brought them
peace and comfort.
00:33:01.41\00:33:03.65
There was one
gentleman, and he had done,
00:33:03.68\00:33:07.62
finished chest chemotherapy
and I played for him.
00:33:07.65\00:33:12.05
And when I left, I
said, "May God be with you."
00:33:12.09\00:33:15.39
And tears rolled down his face.
00:33:15.42\00:33:17.76
And he said, "God
just paid me a visit."
00:33:17.79\00:33:20.30
Oh, how precious.
00:33:20.33\00:33:21.73
Why do you think?
00:33:21.76\00:33:23.63
I mean, I believe God
made us with musical minds.
00:33:23.67\00:33:27.70
And I think music is
a language of its own.
00:33:27.74\00:33:30.91
Do you believe...
00:33:30.94\00:33:32.27
I mean, you
must pray quite a bit
00:33:32.31\00:33:33.64
before you go into the hospital.
00:33:33.74\00:33:35.71
But what do you
think it is about music
00:33:35.74\00:33:38.01
that reaches people in
a place that words can't?
00:33:38.05\00:33:44.25
First of all, I understand is
00:33:44.29\00:33:46.12
it's divinely created.
00:33:46.15\00:33:48.66
And God gave us music
00:33:48.69\00:33:50.39
that we may pray
with our words also.
00:33:50.43\00:33:53.46
And music effect...
00:33:53.50\00:33:54.83
Oh, stop for just a
second because you just,
00:33:54.83\00:33:57.53
you know, this is
something when you said,
00:33:57.57\00:34:00.74
He gave us music
00:34:00.77\00:34:02.10
so that we can
pray with our words...
00:34:02.14\00:34:03.47
Pray with our words.
00:34:03.51\00:34:04.84
Worship songs, to me,
our prayers set to music.
00:34:04.87\00:34:10.05
Correct.
00:34:10.08\00:34:11.41
And I wish people would
learn, that's a sacred moment.
00:34:11.45\00:34:15.32
When we're singing
a worship song to God,
00:34:15.35\00:34:18.72
that's a sacred moment.
00:34:18.75\00:34:20.66
Don't be talking during that,
00:34:20.69\00:34:22.16
you wouldn't
talk during a prayer.
00:34:22.19\00:34:24.23
Don't be talking and punching
your neighbor doing that
00:34:24.26\00:34:26.70
because we need to appreciate
00:34:26.73\00:34:30.43
that is a prayer set to music.
00:34:30.47\00:34:33.50
Yeah.
00:34:33.60\00:34:34.94
I don't mean to be critic,
00:34:34.97\00:34:37.17
but I feel we
still need to learn
00:34:37.27\00:34:39.37
that in our churches.
00:34:39.41\00:34:40.74
Amen.
00:34:40.84\00:34:42.54
When it comes to music,
00:34:42.58\00:34:43.91
it seems to be
something secondary.
00:34:44.01\00:34:46.21
People start to
talk or they sing,
00:34:46.25\00:34:49.95
but they don't open their mouth.
00:34:50.05\00:34:53.72
Obviously, I'm
talking about a few,
00:34:53.82\00:34:55.22
I'm not talking,
I'm part of everyone.
00:34:55.26\00:34:57.39
But I feel we need to comprehend
00:34:57.43\00:34:59.39
exactly what you just said that
00:34:59.43\00:35:01.46
we are worshipping
the Lord, the angels sing,
00:35:01.50\00:35:04.50
"Holy, holy,
holy," all the time.
00:35:04.53\00:35:06.94
So it's a very
sacred moment, really music,
00:35:07.04\00:35:09.87
and music affects us
not only spiritually,
00:35:09.90\00:35:14.41
emotionally,
but also physically.
00:35:14.44\00:35:16.44
We could have a whole other
interview of three hours long,
00:35:16.48\00:35:20.32
just explaining
the power of music,
00:35:20.42\00:35:22.82
scientifically proved,
00:35:22.85\00:35:24.92
how it will
affect us in all senses,
00:35:24.95\00:35:28.16
how it will
produce hormones in us.
00:35:28.19\00:35:31.46
And different types of music,
different types of rhythms,
00:35:31.49\00:35:34.60
harmonies, melodies.
00:35:34.63\00:35:36.63
And Ellen White has a
beautiful thought that says,
00:35:36.73\00:35:42.00
"Used properly,
00:35:42.04\00:35:43.37
music may never find parallel
00:35:43.47\00:35:46.84
in its power to instill in men
00:35:46.88\00:35:50.41
the true value of
morals and the principles
00:35:50.45\00:35:54.28
that should govern our lives."
00:35:54.32\00:35:56.12
Oh, that's gorgeous. So...
00:35:56.15\00:35:58.69
I saw something on
television recently
00:35:58.72\00:36:00.99
that was saying that
00:36:01.02\00:36:02.36
when you
introduce your children,
00:36:02.39\00:36:04.83
as little toddlers introduce
them to classical music
00:36:04.86\00:36:09.43
that it actually
helps their brain develop
00:36:09.46\00:36:13.07
in a way that they
wouldn't otherwise.
00:36:13.10\00:36:15.10
So that is
something really special.
00:36:15.14\00:36:17.41
I know you've brought a video
and we want to show this video.
00:36:17.44\00:36:21.31
This is of Dr. Paulo Torres
00:36:21.34\00:36:27.42
in the hospitals in Brazil.
00:36:27.45\00:36:29.12
That is such a
wonderful ministry.
00:39:51.45\00:39:54.82
And you know,
00:39:54.86\00:39:56.46
Paulo has played not
only in the hospitals
00:39:56.49\00:39:59.43
but in prisons, in orphanages
00:39:59.46\00:40:01.70
to let people
feel "The Love of God."
00:40:01.73\00:40:06.13
And right now we want
him to play that song for us.
00:40:06.17\00:40:09.44
That was heavenly.
00:45:22.68\00:45:25.09
It just transports you
into the presence of the Lord,
00:45:25.12\00:45:28.36
"The Love of God."
00:45:28.39\00:45:30.73
And I hope that you understand
that God is a very personal God
00:45:30.76\00:45:35.60
and He's an
interrelated God with His,
00:45:35.63\00:45:39.20
the creatures
that He has created.
00:45:39.23\00:45:41.74
And if we will
lend our ear to Him,
00:45:41.77\00:45:45.77
He will direct us.
00:45:45.81\00:45:47.68
Paulo, thank you
so much for that.
00:45:47.71\00:45:51.41
Tell us how God
kind of prompted you
00:45:51.45\00:45:56.52
if you will to
move here in 2016?
00:45:56.55\00:46:01.22
I started to pray
that God would show me
00:46:01.26\00:46:07.13
what to do with my
life, with my ministry
00:46:07.13\00:46:10.67
that I could be
more useful in church
00:46:10.70\00:46:13.64
and also reaching people.
00:46:13.74\00:46:15.27
I was doing the
hospital volunteer playing.
00:46:15.30\00:46:20.38
And I was working too hard.
00:46:20.48\00:46:21.81
They had many concerts.
00:46:21.84\00:46:23.18
I had, my agenda was full.
00:46:23.21\00:46:25.45
I was holding
three jobs 40 hours each.
00:46:25.48\00:46:29.65
It was amazing.
00:46:29.68\00:46:31.75
Of course, in Brazil...
00:46:31.79\00:46:33.76
How happy did
that make your wife?
00:46:33.86\00:46:35.82
Not very happy.
00:46:35.86\00:46:37.53
I don't have to clock.
00:46:37.63\00:46:38.96
I didn't have to
clock all those hours
00:46:38.99\00:46:40.40
because you teach
some, you prepare at home.
00:46:40.50\00:46:42.96
It's the way it works in Brazil
00:46:43.00\00:46:44.33
but it was
fairly heavy schedule.
00:46:44.37\00:46:46.80
And plus that I was
asked to do recording,
00:46:46.84\00:46:49.60
so I would have to
cancel this to do that.
00:46:49.64\00:46:52.54
And I said, "Lord,
please show me something?
00:46:52.57\00:46:54.71
What would You like me to do?"
00:46:54.74\00:46:57.41
And the hospital things
00:46:57.51\00:47:00.35
started to become
more and more important
00:47:00.45\00:47:02.55
and up to the point that
all televisions in the nation,
00:47:02.58\00:47:06.02
in Brazil
started to interview me
00:47:06.05\00:47:07.92
and I did many
programs for them.
00:47:07.96\00:47:10.66
They visited the
hospitals with me
00:47:10.69\00:47:12.83
and they were filming
and speaking to patients.
00:47:12.86\00:47:15.50
So that became
something very important.
00:47:15.53\00:47:18.33
At the same time,
00:47:18.37\00:47:19.70
I was assaulted with
gun on my head three times.
00:47:19.73\00:47:26.07
And I said, "Lord, I think
00:47:26.11\00:47:27.58
this is becoming
kind of dangerous."
00:47:27.61\00:47:30.55
I have family, my sister
and my niece live in Florida.
00:47:30.58\00:47:35.68
And I said, "Maybe, I
should move to Florida
00:47:35.72\00:47:38.05
for a sabbatical."
00:47:38.09\00:47:40.06
But even though it
was just a sabbatical,
00:47:40.16\00:47:42.59
I sold my home.
00:47:42.62\00:47:45.93
And I said,
00:47:45.96\00:47:47.30
"I trusted that Lord
will open doors there for me."
00:47:47.40\00:47:50.03
And I came to America.
00:47:53.40\00:47:56.00
In a few days
after I left my home,
00:47:56.04\00:48:00.51
the new owner was
shot at the house.
00:48:00.54\00:48:02.98
Oh, my!
00:48:03.01\00:48:04.85
And so several
things were happening
00:48:04.88\00:48:07.25
and I knew that the
Lord's hand was guiding me.
00:48:07.28\00:48:10.62
And here I offered myself
00:48:10.72\00:48:13.89
at the hospitals in Florida,
00:48:13.92\00:48:18.09
at Flagler,
Florida Flagler Hospital.
00:48:18.13\00:48:22.70
Florida Hospital Flagler
00:48:22.73\00:48:24.07
and Florida Hospital
Memorial Medical Center.
00:48:24.17\00:48:27.64
And for 10 months,
00:48:27.67\00:48:29.00
I was a volunteer
playing the violin.
00:48:29.04\00:48:32.14
And I was then invited to
become their music minister
00:48:32.17\00:48:36.54
because of the
benefit the music was bringing
00:48:36.58\00:48:39.28
to everyone in the hospital.
00:48:39.31\00:48:40.72
Oh, you know,
00:48:40.75\00:48:42.08
you think about the stress
that even doctors and nurses,
00:48:42.12\00:48:46.65
the hospitals have a
stressful environment.
00:48:46.76\00:48:50.63
And I'm sure that music does
bring about a calm atmosphere.
00:48:50.73\00:48:56.46
Tell us real quickly
00:48:56.50\00:48:57.83
I want to put up
your website address
00:48:57.87\00:49:01.27
and this will be on the screen,
00:49:01.30\00:49:02.97
but let me spell it for those
who are listening on the radio.
00:49:03.00\00:49:08.54
MaestroPauloTorres,
00:49:08.58\00:49:11.48
and your email is DrPaulTorres,
00:49:25.09\00:49:29.20
and I swallowed the u on Paulo,
00:49:29.23\00:49:32.73
D- R-PA-U-L-O-T-O-R-R-E-S
@gmail.com.
00:49:32.77\00:49:39.47
Right.
00:49:39.51\00:49:40.88
And the reason I want
to make sure those got up
00:49:40.91\00:49:42.94
is because you
may like Boston did
00:49:42.98\00:49:47.22
want to invite
Dr. Torres to come
00:49:47.32\00:49:50.19
and do something special.
00:49:50.22\00:49:52.75
Tell us about
what happened in Boston
00:49:52.79\00:49:55.16
in the week of prayer?
00:49:55.19\00:49:56.52
They asked me to
come for a week of prayer
00:49:56.56\00:49:59.89
and talk about music,
about worship, adoration.
00:50:00.00\00:50:05.57
And it was wonderful
00:50:05.60\00:50:07.30
because I was able to explain
all the aspects of music.
00:50:07.40\00:50:10.87
On the first day,
00:50:10.91\00:50:12.24
I basically gave
lectures on music,
00:50:12.27\00:50:14.94
the power of music and
the effect of music upon us.
00:50:14.98\00:50:19.05
And then I was
getting into the way God
00:50:19.08\00:50:22.15
directs music to
impress our minds, our hearts,
00:50:22.18\00:50:26.82
to become more sensitive
to everything around us
00:50:26.86\00:50:29.82
to His Word, and to
worship Him properly.
00:50:29.86\00:50:35.20
And at the end,
we had three churches
00:50:35.23\00:50:38.67
that canceled all their events,
00:50:38.70\00:50:41.10
and they all came to
this place in Brockton.
00:50:41.14\00:50:44.94
And where we then had a
worship with at least I think,
00:50:44.97\00:50:48.14
800 people.
00:50:48.18\00:50:49.51
Amen.
00:50:49.54\00:50:50.88
You know, I always say
00:50:50.91\00:50:52.25
that the purpose
of our music service
00:50:52.28\00:50:56.45
in our Sabbath service
is to plow up our hearts
00:50:56.48\00:51:03.02
and make us good soil
to receive the Word of God.
00:51:03.06\00:51:07.83
So I think that music
is part of God's design,
00:51:07.86\00:51:11.03
part of His plan
for the church service,
00:51:11.07\00:51:13.80
and it's very important.
00:51:13.90\00:51:15.84
And I believe,
00:51:15.87\00:51:17.77
this is my personal opinion,
00:51:17.81\00:51:19.57
I'm not hearing
anything from the Lord.
00:51:19.61\00:51:21.71
But I believe that is
00:51:21.74\00:51:23.08
when you ask for
greater ministry in music,
00:51:23.11\00:51:26.05
if you can teach people
00:51:26.08\00:51:28.52
the truth about
worship and music,
00:51:28.55\00:51:30.85
I think God will
use you in a mighty way.
00:51:30.89\00:51:33.42
Well, we're gonna
take a quick break
00:51:33.46\00:51:35.06
because we want you
to have the opportunity
00:51:35.09\00:51:38.89
to see our most
recent news break,
00:51:38.93\00:51:41.36
but then we're
going to come back
00:51:41.40\00:51:42.83
for a closing thought
from Dr. Paulo Torres.
00:51:42.86\00:51:46.37
