about yam.

Seattle is full of young adults searching for connection - yet it’s also one of the loneliest cities in the country. Between the “Seattle Freeze,” packed schedules, and surface-level relationships, it’s easy to feel like you don’t truly belong anywhere.

That’s where Kalos YAM comes in.

We’re a community of young adults in the greater Seattle/Bellevue area who gather regularly to build friendships, grow in faith, and figure out what it means to follow Jesus in everyday life.

Whether you’re curious about faith, brand new to church, or you’ve been following Jesus for years, you belong here.

our mission.

To make known the beauty of Jesus among young adults by cultivating authentic community, encouraging spiritual growth, and creating opportunities to both serve and be served. 

our vision.

We dream of a movement of young adults who choose depth over surface-level connection, form friendships that last through both the highs and lows of life, and live with purpose and hope in their workplaces, campuses, and communities. We long to see young adults discover what it means to know Jesus, and share His love with others.

our values.

  • Authentic Community — Come as you are - you’re accepted no matter what. We believe everyone deserves a seat at the table, and real belonging starts when we come as we are.

  • Real Talk — We don’t settle for “just how things are.” We ask the hard questions, rethink the patterns we fall into, and explore what it looks like to live with purpose.

  • Deep Transformation — Faith isn’t about quick fixes. We believe God transforms us from the inside out - and we long to see true, lasting change take root in our lives.

when we gather.

We meet on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month at 7PM.

  • First Wednesday — Gatherings

    • A night with worship, prayer, teaching, and conversations around the real questions young adults are asking — plus time in small groups to connect and reflect

  • Third Wednesday — Socials

    • Hangouts and social nights — think games, food, city adventures, and space to just connect (and have fun!).

And leading up to our official launch on September 17, 2025, we’ll be hosting Prayer in the Park nights. Come check one out!

FAQ.

Who counts as a “young adult”?
If you’re roughly 18–30 (ish), you’re in. 

Do I have to be a Christian to come?
Nope! Whether you’re curious about faith, skeptical, or already following Jesus, you’re welcome here.

What should I expect on a Wednesday night?
First Wednesdays feel a bit like a church service (worship, prayer, teaching, and discussion). Third Wednesdays are more relaxed—games, food, or hanging out around the city.

What do I need to bring?
Just yourself. And maybe a friend!
