Testimonies:

I just finished listening to your speech you gave to our company leaders here at Brookshire Grocery Company in 2007. I was not able to hear you live but I found someone at work that had it recorded.I just want to say how much i appreciate your dedication to your faith, family and profession amidst all of the pressures of the world and temptations that tend to pull at us daily. Please continue to lead and to be a postitive example to the young bull riders that you come in contact with. These young guys are our future. Keep up the great work.

Chronicling Adriano Moraes' final ride for me at least was as big as it gets. Moraes, the three-time PBR world champiom, is as amazing an athlete as I've ever witnessed. To say that the PBR will have a difficult time replacing Moraes' is like saying that the Chicago Bulls have had a difficult time replacing Michael Jordan. "There is and always will be only one Adriano Moraes, and it has been a pleasure and an honor to cover some of his PBR career. Not once in a while nor once in a lifetime nor ever will we see his likes again."

Adriano Moraes is not only the first 3 Time PBR World Champion, but even more important, he is a true inspiration to young Americans! During a visit to my college cultural geography classroom, he spoke from the heart about the importance of education and the value of knowing your heritage. The students were awed - as were my wife and myself, who considered his presentation better than any motivational high school or college graduation speech we have ever heard! By just being himself, he made more than one hundred students of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds new fans of the PBR. He is a truly champion and ambassador!

Our company's team members were both, inspired and motivated when they recently heard Adriano Moraes share his life story. He challenged everyone to not settle for mediocrity in their personal lives or in the workplace. Encouraging each person to never give up on their dreams. Having Adriano speak to our employees was a great investment in the people we depend on in our business.

Adriano took the time to speak to our neighborhood kids who attend Wonderful Wednesday - a one-day-a-week after-school program sponsored by St. Paul Children's Foundation. His talk was very encouraging to these young people as he spoke about being born to a poor family in Brazil, yet through faith, hope and courage, he grew up to be a three-time world champion. He spoke of self-discipline, respect, friendship, love, and perseverance in setting goals and accomplishing them. He told them that even with all the publicity he has received through the Professional Bull Riders, the most important thing in his life is his relationship with Jesus Christ.
