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.

Real Change
Some exciting news! In the first part of 2026, on Sunday evenings (4, 18, 25 Jan & 8, 15, 22 Feb), we are planning on going through Real Change, a six-session course that helps churches and Christian groups pursue biblical, gospel-centred, heart focused change. Based on CCEF’s (Christian Counselling and Educational Foundation) Dynamics of Biblical Change, Real Change is ideal for anyone who wants to grow to be more like Jesus. It is a course for anyone who wants to find out how the gospel changes us from the inside out – for anyone who wants to take a look at what is going on in their heart and grow with God’s help to see real change. Each evening will commence at 7pm in the Clayton Hall with a cup of tea/coffee. Everyone is really welcome to come along.
