Pastoral Team

Greetings from the parish office! My name is Karen Wieser. I began working at the parish office in March of 2009. I am the second of three daughters born to Anton & Roberta Buresh. In 1983 I met my husband, Steve Wieser and we were married in 1986. We have lived on a farm just south of Humphrey for thirty three years and recently moved into Humphrey. To this union was born five children, Michele, Mitchell, Aaron, Spencer and John. Our family has grown over the past year as they are all married and we welcomed an awesome son in-law and four awesome daughter in-laws! We have fourteen grandchildren.

Steve and our children are all graduates of Humphrey St. Francis School.

I am truly blessed to be part of the St. Francis staff and look forward to meeting you!

Hi! I’m Lisa Krings, bookkeeper for St. Francis Church, School, Daycare and Cafeteria. I began my position as parish bookkeeper in the summer of 1999, and I still can’t believe how blessed I am to be a part of the mission here at St. Francis.

I grew up on a farm just south of Humphrey and attended St. Francis Church (as did my parents, grandparents and great-grandparents) and graduated from St. Francis School.

I married Andy Krings in the early 80s. God has truly blessed us with three wonderful daughters. Our family continues to grow and now includes three sons-in-law and grandchildren, some of whom now also attend St. Francis, the fifth generation in my family to attend St. Francis School!

My greatest joy is found in continuing to learn about my Catholic faith and spending time with my family. I also like to read, play games, and do puzzles.

My greatest blessings are my relationship with Christ, my family and friends, and walking through the door of the parish office each weekday to do the best I can and to spread the message of Christ. I believe this is where God wants me to be.

My name is Katie Morfeld and I am the Bulletin Editor for St. Francis Church. I began working at the parish office in the beginning of 2006, where I eventually became the composer/editor of the weekly bulletin.

I grew up in Humphrey and am a fourth generation graduate from St. Francis Schools. I now live in Humphrey with my husband, Brandon, and my three children, Lexi, Ellie and Will, who also attend St. Francis.

My passions are my family, art (children’s illustrations, pencil drawings, painting, etc.), and studying my Catholic faith.

My name is Diane Zach and I have lived and been a part of the Humphrey Community and St. Francis Parish my entire life. I grew up on my parents’ farm just south of Humphrey and graduated from St. Francis School. I have been married to Dale Zach since 1976 and live south of St. Mary Church. God has blessed us with four wonderful children, and most of our free time is spent with them and our grandchildren.

Growing up on a farm was an adventure, with lots of hard work but lots of fun. My parents instilled strong values in me, including the importance of taking care of each other. My father, Gene Zach, was instrumental in my becoming a caregiver.

I have worked as a geriatric caregiver most of my adult life in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and as a hospice care provider. I feel incredibly blessed and excited to serve the people of St. Francis Parish as a pastoral minister.
