Sister Doris Engeman was raised on a small family farm outside Montrose, Missouri. Her family (dad, mom and 4 siblings) was active in Church activities, 4-H, and sports. After college and teaching for two years, she answered her Call to Consecrated Life, professing Vows in 1988.
She taught in Catholic schools for ten years, worked in youth ministry, parish ministry, retreat direction, and recently as live-in staff member and counselor at a maternity home.
Sister Doris is the founding member of the Franciscan Servants of the Holy Family, in the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas. Their mission, helping families grow in holiness and unity, is fostered through the parent education program, “Families of Hope: Passing on the Faith.”
She holds a BS in Education, a Masters degree in Counseling from Creighton University, and in 2007 earned a Master of Theological Studies degree with an emphasis in Marriage and Family from the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family, in Washington, DC.
Sister Doris ministered here at Corpus Christi as Director of Religious Education for 9 years, coordinated the Religious Ed. program children and their parents, as well as the RCIA and other Adult Faith offerings at Corpus Christi parish in Lawrence, KS. She is excited to return to ministry here to assist with the Religious Education program for children.
She enjoys sharing the Truth of the Catholic faith with others, hiking, reading, woodworking, and gardening.
