Assumption Greek Orthodox Church
YAL Seattle
Mission Statement:
We are a community of young adults who come together to grow closer to Christ and one another through worship, witness, service, and fellowship.
Young Adult League (YAL) cultivates and educates young adults, leading them to the fullness of the Faith and likeness of God. By utilizing the four circles of Christian living—worship, fellowship, service, and witness—young adults are integrated into the life of the Church. While most YAL activities happen at local chapters, there are metropolitan-level and national events where young adults can participate.
About Our Chapter:
Our chapter serves young adults ages 18-35 in the Seattle area. It is not exclusive to St. Demetrios and welcomes all Orthodox Christians and inquirers to the faith.
We do regular service projects, monthly social events, and religious and faith-based discussions.
2024 YAL Leadership Committee:
Kiki Gormanos, Alexa Phillips, Mariana Frangos, Owen Gadd, Achilles Dabrowski, Christina Bayouk.

Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF)
We have an established OCF chapter for college students at the University of Washington.
Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF) is the official collegiate campus ministry program under the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of the United States of America. OCF provides a space for college students to discuss the Orthodox Christian faith and build friendships with others who share the same values. We host various events that relate to our 4 pillars: fellowship, education, worship, and service.
To learn more about our OCF chapter, contact Noreen Bayouk or Fr. Spyridon Rice or email us at ocf@uw.edu.
