Bezi Lizzi is a Messianic Gentile with a love for God, passion for Torah, and immense desire to see God’ kingdom come through disciples of Yeshua. He has always enjoyed working with children from teaching swimming lessons to kids of all ages and backgrounds to most recently working with special needs kids at the elementary school of his home town of Junction City, Oregon. He earned a BA in Education and Religion with a minor in Biblical languages from Southern Adventist University where he met his beautiful and loving wife, Tori.

Shalom friends! My name is Roman, I’m married to my super awesome wife Alaina, we have three amazing children (ages 6, 4, and 1). I am an artist and singer songwriter.
