As a native of South Carolina, growing up I always loved camping and the outdoors, especially with Boy Scouts, but never imagined my own path would lead to serving full-time in our United Methodist Camp and Retreat Ministries. My wife, Romana Abelova, and I have two school aged daughters – Veronika and Viktoria – and over the course of the last four years, we visited 27 national parks and countless national monuments and historical sites. After serving as a local church pastor for the past 17 years, this was truly inspiring. Camp Indianola is equally inspiring as a place where the beauty, goodness and grace of God’s Creation can be not only seen, but experienced first-hand as we look to grow our faith in Christ. I look forward to continuing this journey. We are so excited to be calling the Pacific NW our new home!

Josh has lived in the Pacific Northwest all his life. His construction, pest control, and landscape management skills go all the way back to when he was six years old helping out his dad with his businesses. He has spent 12 years working at PNW camps and has done everything from livestock management to camp cook. He finds great joy in serving and getting to know the guests who come through Camp Indianola. When he is not managing our buildings and grounds, you can find him kayaking on the Sound, talking about life and Jesus with whomever comes his way, or hanging out with his wife, Mandi, and their two kids.
