I wanted to take a moment to share more about myself, as recently, a church mentioned they didn't know much about me. Let me give you some insights into who I am.
I have married my beautiful wife Rebecca (Becky) Rizzo for 40 years. We have four children - two boys and two girls, ranging from 34 to 26 years old. We have been incredibly blessed with our family. Becky is a Christian school teacher at Concord Christian Academy, where she finds great joy in teaching children and sharing the gospel with them. This is truly a high calling of service to the Lord. She also assists with our ministry by teaching children and helping with our Youth Safety Zone events. Becky's greatest joy is spending time with her two grandchildren, Skylar and Abigail.
As for my hobbies, I enjoy skiing, though less frequently now at age 63. I'm also an avid RV enthusiast and have traveled in recreational vehicles for the past 37 years, both for ministry and vacation. Through these years, I've gained extensive experience with various trailers. I've also taken up soccer officiating as a hobby, which has provided both enjoyment and physical benefits, though I must be careful not to overexert myself.
Over the past 30 years, I've experienced several back injuries due to car accidents while traveling for ministry across the United States. To manage the discomfort, I've developed a regular running routine that helps maintain my mobility. Though I was recently hospitalized for ongoing lower back issues, I continue to manage the chronic pain and press toward the high calling in Christ Jesus.
For the past five years, I've been actively writing books. Since completing my PhD in Biblical Studies, I've published six children's books and 15 books on various Biblical topics. All of my works are available on Amazon. I've set an ambitious goal of writing 100 books in the next five years. In 2016, I began exploring video and audio production as a hobby. This has since grown into a ministry that has reached thousands of viewers since its official launch in 2019. I am blessed to be a member of Aldan Union Church in Aldan, PA. I can honestly say I have never seen a church family with such a great missionary spirit. Their unique approach and love for missions make us grateful to be part of this congregation.
My greatest passion remains ministering the gospel to America's youth, and I'm constantly seeking new opportunities to share God's word in various settings. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about Becky and me. We sincerely appreciate your prayers and encouragement as we continue our missionary work with American youth.
Our Youth Digital Safety Zones has made effective outreach and inroads in ministering the gospel to many students and families searching for truth. It is our great privilege to be used in this ministry. Here are some remarkable statistics from our journey: In the past five years, we have reached 5 million views across all our media platforms and built a community of 10,000 followers across our platforms. This outreach is a testament to the impact of consistent, effective ministry. We humbly ask for your continued prayers as we balance our digital outreach with our Safety Zones Ministry.

Tony and Becky Rizzo have been traveling to many different destinations in the United States to minister the gospel to the youth of America. Tony travels extensively to churches to minister with the Kids and Youth Safety Zones. One of the ways we travel is by our RV. Do you know Tony has been trailering with his wife and family for the last 37 years at times? We would love to visit your church, park our RV, and minister to your youth and families. Different conferences were held this last year. These are the Tony’s Tales conferences, Safety Zone Outreaches, and Church-wide Family and Evangelism Conferences.
