On behalf of our parish family we wish to extend a warm welcome to you on visiting our website. It is our hope and prayer that St Patrick’s and St John’s Parish will be able to provide the support you need in your spiritual journey with our Lord. We are a vibrant, growing, and engaged community with hundreds of registered families. We work hard each day to bring the Gospel message of Jesus Christ to life through our actions and our words. It is our hope that we do this well through prayer, the sacraments, and hospitality.
As Pope Francis invites everyone to feel God’s warm presence and be for all people Jesus Christ, we follow his example with joy in our hearts.

DIOCESE OF LA CROSSE GUIDELINES FOR REPORTING INSTANCES OF CHILD ABUSE
The Diocese of La Crosse, through its policies and procedures, seeks to provide a prompt, appropriate and compassionate response to reporters of sexual abuse of a child by any diocesan agent (bishop, priest, deacon, employee, religious, vendor or volunteer). Anyone wishing to make a report of an allegation of sexual abuse should send that report to Mrs. Karen Becker, Complaint Intake Agent, at the Diocese of La Crosse, P.O. Box 4004, La Crosse, WI 54602-4004. Alternatively, you can contact Mrs. Becker at 608.791.0179 or [email protected]. The reporting form is available through the Diocese of La Crosse Office of Safe Environment or on the diocesan website at: diolc.org/safe-environment/reporting. Individuals are also encouraged to take their reports directly to civil authorities. Copies of the diocesan policy are available through your local parish and on the diocesan website. If you have any questions about the Diocese of La Crosse and the implementation of the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People, please contact Teresa Brown, Diocese of La Crosse, at 608.791.2679; or [email protected].
