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.
