Part of the whole church
You belong here.
You help lead here.
Young Adults are not a separate program at UAMEZ. They are an integral part of our community, leading and serving alongside people of every generation across our ministries.
UAMEZ is a historically Black, multicultural church. Whether you are studying, working, raising children, or figuring out what comes next, there is a place for you to worship, contribute, and grow with us.

How can young adults connect?

Can I come with my questions
and my whole life?
You do not need to have faith figured out before you find community.
Getting here / from campus & beyond
No car? Can we talk?

Faith in the middle of real life
Does my work matter
without being all I am?
What does faith have to say about ambition, technology, burnout, identity, or purpose? These are questions worth bringing into the open, not leaving at the door.

Before you come
What questions should I ask?
There is room for the honest ones.
Do I have to be a Christian?
No. You are welcome with questions, whether you are returning to church after years away or you have never been before.
Is this only for single people?
No. Single, married, dating, with children or without children: there is no one life stage you need to be in to come.
Is this a separate Young-Adult program?
No. Young Adults are an integral part of the whole church, leading and serving across its ministries. Our Young-Adult small group is one additional way to connect, not the limit of your involvement.
When does the Young-Adult small group meet?
The published fall 2026 schedule may no longer be current. Email us to ask when the small group is meeting now.
What if I cannot get there easily?
Email ride@uamez.com to ask about possible ride options. Please confirm arrangements with the church before relying on a ride.
The first step can be simple
Is there a seat for me here?
Come on a Sunday. Stay for a conversation. You do not have to have a plan for everything that comes after.
