At St. Joachim's we promote an active youth community and one of the ways that we do this is by being involved! Our goal in everything we offer for our youth is to help them become the best version of themselves which God intended them to become and thus find the happiness only God can provide. Guided by the wisdom of the Catholic Church and always in union with church teaching, we offer numerous small and large group activities. We continue to look for new ways to help our youth getting involved in parish activities, our Diocese of LaCrosse and National Events. We invite any youth to join us, we always have fun with the Lord! We can be reached by calling the Central office at 715-884-6815, contacting Christina Pelot email: [email protected], cell phone 715-451-5167 and home phone number 715-884-6080
