Team Lenny's Light
Team Lenny's Light was established in 2021 by the Youth Outreach of St. Mark's Lutheran Church in Pennsburg, PA in order to honor our friend and church member Lenny Rafalko.
Team Lenny’s Light took first place honors for the third year in a row at the Lehigh Valley ALS Walk on Sat Sep 28, 2024 at Cedar Crest College. In memory of Lenny Rafalko, we raised over $10,000 to help defeat ALS. Almost 40 team members strolled the campus in a fine mist.
Before the walk, team members Marda Smith, Paul Bartlett, and Norm were hosted on WMFZ’s Sunrise Weekend News. Following the walk we returned to St Mark’s Lutheran Church for lunch.Visit our team website at: https://www.teamlennyslight.org/
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disease that slowly robs the body of its ability to walk, speak, swallow and breathe. The life expectancy of a person with ALS averages 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis.
