Meet Our Pastor

Fr. Elias Gieske

Fr. Eli was ordained in 2013 for the diocese of Duluth. He served St. Joseph’s community from 2016-2020, the first two years with Deerwood and Crosby and the second two years with Deerwood, Crosby, Garrison and Hillman. During this time, Deerwood and Crosby parishes were combined and clustered with Garrison and Hillman. In April of 2022, he returned to our church cluster.

Father Eli grew up in Lindstrom, Minnesota. He attended Chisago Lakes High School. His parents still reside in Lindstrom. Father Eli has an older sister, two younger brothers and seven nieces and nephews. He enjoys hiking, backpacking and camping, board and card games. He is always fascinated to learn people’s stories and find out what God is doing in their lives. He likes visiting his parishioners in their homes and having a meal or a discussion with them.

Greetings to you in the healing, hope and joy that we can only find in the Risen Lord! Hallelujah!

By:

Bishop Daniel Felton, joined by many of the clergy and faithful of the Duluth Diocese, celebrated a Memorial Mass March 4 at a packed Resurrection Church in Eveleth for the late Bishop Peter Muhich of the Diocese of Rapid City, S.D.

Vatican reaches decision in appeal of Father William Graham

By:

On Monday, March 18, 2024, the Diocese of Duluth received official notification from the Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith in Rome regarding the ongoing appeal of the Rev. William C. Graham, a priest of the Diocese of Duluth.

APR

Father Nicholas Nelson: Why are you Catholic?

By:

We can prove in a philosophical way that there is a God, a First Cause and sustainer of all that exists. The First Vatican Council proclaimed this fact: “God, the origin and end of all things, can be known with certainty by the natural light of human reason, through the things that he created” (Dei Filius 2).

APR

Father Richard Kunst: Preaching to be popular

By:

I readily admit that I am not very good at giving praise to people. It is very important to affirm a job well done, especially if you are in a position of management. If any of my parish or school staff read this column, they would probably concur; I need to work on that a little more, because people should be affirmed when the job is indeed well done.

APR

Deacon Kyle Eller: 20 years a Catholic, the love affair continues

By:

Part way through Holy Saturday, anticipating the glorious liturgy in which I had the privilege to sing the beautiful Exultet, it occurred to me: This year’s Easter Vigil was, liturgically, the 20th anniversary of when I was received into full communion with the Catholic Church, along with my wife and my oldest daughter — then an infant, now an undergrad — who was baptized that night.

APR

Betsy Kneepkens: The church has to help re-establish courtship

By:

On a Friday evening around 7 p.m., I observed young men exiting their cars. As they reached for their suit coats from the back of their vehicles, I saw them quickly helping each other, fixing ties, adjusting collars, and straightening suit coats. Shortly after that, other cars pulled up, and some young ladies in long dresses (exquisite and likely expensive) stepped out of their vehicles.

APR

Faith communities unite against exclusion of religious protections in the Minnesota Human Rights Act

By:

At a Senate Judiciary and Public Safety Committee meeting held on Monday, March 18, committee members rejected an amendment offered to S.F. 4292 that would restore the religious exemption protections to the Minnesota Human Rights Act (MHRA) as it relates to gender identity.
