Welcome to Dromore Cathedral
Dromore Cathedral has been at the heart of Dromore for centuries. We serve the community of Dromore by bringing Christ’s compassion, love and hope of salvation to people of all ages.
Just as relevant as ever, we believe Christ and his radical teaching to be the only solution to the problems of our country, town and selves. We invite you to join us on our journey as we discover how to be everything he called us to be.
We are a Parish Church in the Diocese of Down and Dromore, part of the Church of Ireland, a member of the Worldwide Anglican Communion.

AV system Refresher Training
If anyone is interested in training or a refresher about how to effectively use the AV system in the Cathedral, we are planning to hold an evening or two to facilitate this.

If you are interested (existing or new volunteers), please speak to me or contact Jill in the office. Scott Mackey
