His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios,  Spiritual Leader
​Twenty-six years ago, His Eminence had the vision of building a camp where Greek Orthodox Youth from across the New England area could gather, share and enhance their faith and cultural experience, strengthen their relationship with God and establish lifelong friendships. Thanks to his tireless efforts, and his visionary leadership the  Metropolis of Boston Camp and the Saint Methodios Faith and Heritage Center have flourished.

Stephan Maranian,  Boys' Director 
Among the likes of John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and George H.W. Bush right down the road in Milton, Stephan was born and raised in the City of Presidents- Quincy, MA. He has served as a staff member for both MBC and St. Methodios since 2014.  As a student of environmental science, Stephan brings to the table a unique understanding of the beautiful 300 acre paradise that the camp is built upon.  Just as Stephan's favorite animal, the beaver, builds its lodge and dam with the materials it finds in the floodplain, Stephan looks to build and enhance youth ministry with the humor and creativity of the campers and staff of MBC.

Jaclyn Zois,  Office Administrator
MBC has always been a home away from home for Jackie and she can’t wait to return for her either year on staff! She graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in 2017 and completed her M.S. in Medical Sciences at Boston University’s School of Medicine in 2019. She hopes to attend medical school and become a pediatric specialist. Jackie never goes anywhere with out her backpack and has a special place in her heart for elephants, the outdoors, cheese and quality colored pens. She’s full of mediocre sports ability, gimp skills to be reckoned with, and energy levels surprisingly large for someone her size. Jackie can't wait to engage in all of the fun, fellowship, and shenanigans at MBC!
