My name is Nicole, I am 13 years old,

00:02.680 --> 00:06.300
I have been at Dorcas for 3 years and I live in Almirante Tamandaré.

00:06.300 --> 00:09.480
What marked me most here at Dorcas was my first time coming,

00:09.480 --> 00:14.000
because Dorcas is... it's different, there is the devotional,

00:14.000 --> 00:15.640
after the devotional there are classes.

00:15.640 --> 00:18.600
It marked me a lot because I met new people,

00:18.600 --> 00:20.280
I saw different things,

00:20.280 --> 00:22.240
I saw things I had never done before.

00:22.240 --> 00:26.160
I take away many experiences such as performances,

00:26.160 --> 00:29.080
different activities, the days.

00:29.080 --> 00:32.880
Dorcas changes the lives of many people, children and teenagers.

00:32.880 --> 00:34.880
I managed to live with many people.

00:34.880 --> 00:38.480
I didn't like making new friendships much,

00:38.480 --> 00:41.080
seeing new people, I always wanted to fight.

00:41.080 --> 00:43.080
And now it has changed a lot,

00:43.080 --> 00:44.680
that now I have to make new friendships,

00:44.680 --> 00:46.280
I met different people.

00:46.280 --> 00:50.680
I take a bit of everything, friendships, the teachings,

00:50.680 --> 00:53.280
how they understand us here inside.

00:53.280 --> 00:55.080
I play trumpet,

00:55.080 --> 00:57.080
recorder,

00:57.080 --> 01:00.280
tenor and alto.

01:00.280 --> 01:03.080
Definitely the trumpet.

01:03.080 --> 01:06.480
Because, you know, I always had a dream,

01:06.480 --> 01:09.680
that Dorcas has instrument stages,

01:09.680 --> 01:13.080
I always had a dream of wanting to always be, like...

01:13.080 --> 01:14.480
move up to the higher stage,

01:14.480 --> 01:18.680
so I really like it because its sound is very good,

01:18.680 --> 01:22.080
the notes are nice, it's nice.

01:22.080 --> 01:23.880
I feel very happy to be here,

01:23.880 --> 01:26.880
because here is a place where I feel welcomed,

01:26.880 --> 01:29.080
I feel happy because there are many friends,

01:29.080 --> 01:31.080
many people who understand me.
