Stephanie Olson talks to Treva Baltes about the beauty of adoption.
Treva Baltes lives in “The Sweetest Place On Earth”, Hershey, Pennsylvania with her husband, David and 2 daughters, Eva Monet and Avery. After graduating with a business degree and music minor, she enjoyed a rewarding career in corporate America that expanded over 25 years. It wasn’t until she and David celebrated their 20th anniversary that they welcomed their first child through International Adoption. 7 years later they found themselves back in China, welcoming their 2nd daughter. Nowadays, you’ll find Treva leading worship in her church and running her home based business, “She Build’s Belief”, supporting and inspiring Women Entrepreneurs. She loves spending time with her family and friends. A pastor’s wife for 31 years, connecting with people and celebrating the diverse ways God designed us is a joy!
