St Michael's After School Hub is a free after school club for primary aged children where we tell stories, explore ideas, share snacks, crafting activities, play games and have fun!
We meet twice monthly, on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month in term time from 3.30pm to 4.45pm.
Our ethos:
Being a church club, we tend to focus on Bible stories and from time to time suggest that children and their parents and carers might like to come to special services (e.g., The Christmas Crib Services, Mothering Sunday and Harvest).
We aim to provide the children with an enjoyable time and feel comfortable in the church surroundings.
The Club is registered with the Diocese of Lincoln Children and Youth.
Attendance is free and we welcome all primary aged children in our community.

St Michael's Church, Waddington

St Michaels is a welcoming, active and inclusive church in Waddington, about 5 miles south of Lincoln. Built in the 1950s, after the previous church was destroyed during WWII, the building is located in the older part of the village on the Lincolnshire Edge. We look forward to welcoming you into our church.

We gather together each Sunday at 10:30am for our morning service. This service is often a communion service where we remember Jesus' death on the cross and his resurrection. There are refreshments after the service and our children's area provides space for children to play and explore together. On a Sunday evening (6pm) we gather for a short evening prayer service. On the 2nd and 4th Sundays we also gather at 8:30am for our Breakfast Church service.

During the week the church is open 10am - 4pm.
On Monday's we are open as a Warm Welcome Space 10am - 3pm providing company, hot drinks, activities and lunch. On a Tuesday (term time only) our SMASH (formerly Discoverers) after school club meets for ages 5-11, fortnightly from 3.30pm - 4.45pm.
Prayer Wave, our weekly prayer meeting, takes place online on a Wednesday morning at 9.30am and on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday we hold a 'Hope in Loss' group 6pm-8pm.
On a Thursday at 10am - 11.30am (term time only) our pre school group, Little Stars meets.
On the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month our men's group 'The Crew' meets at 10am.
