Tresta was raised under the New Mexican sunsets and loves Mexican and Navajo food.  She learned about the miracle of the body in nursing school at Weber State and about putting Christ first on her mission to the Netherlands.  She is learning patience while homeschooling her eight children.  She practiced tolerance while staying in and out of the hospital for two years with her 7thchild with liver failure.  She remains hungry for knowledge about symbols, rituals and patterns within the scriptures and the ancient Hebrew and Persian cultures.  She is the recent author of “God Saw that it Was Good,” a simple book on symbols.  If she had to choose only one subject to study she would study the stars.
