Andrew Brueggen, our Youth Minister!


We're happy to announce that we have a new Youth Minister. Andrew Brueggen is a student at Saint Mary's University in Winona majoring in Pastoral and Youth Ministry. He'll graduate in May 2011.  Andrew is involved in Track and Field  and is an All Conference Hammer Throw and National Qualifier in Hammer Throw. So keep him away from hammers --- or keep him on your side!

 

Andrew also attended UW La Crosse, was a part of the Screaming Eagle's Band (Tuba), Track and Field, and Cheer and Stunt Team.  He's a 2007 Graduate of Holmen High School where he was a National Honor Society Member, Football Viking Award Winner, Powerlifter, Show Choir, Band and Choir. His GPA dipped to 3.99 in 2007.

 

Andrew has been employed by the La Crosse Area Family YMCA in Child Watch, Wellness Center, and Teen Strength Coordinator.  Andrew is one of the original founders of the praise and worship band "Traditional Division" playing bas guitar and lead vocals.  Andrew is a substitute teacher for 9th and 10th grade CCD, public speaker at Diocesan youth retreats and rallies (including the upcoming rally at Chula Vista in Wisconsin Dells), assisted in preparation and execution of youth events at the parish and diocesan levels, and assisted by chaperoning parish youth trips and camp counselor.

Andrew came highly recommended by Chris Rogers (Diocesan Director of Youth Ministry) and Father Joe Hirsch (Vicar for Priests and Vocation Director for the Diocese of La Crosse).  E-mail Andrew at:  andrew@stpatzyouth.com.
