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.

Kingdom Kids:
We are so excited to welcome all our primary school aged children back to Kingdom Kids tomorrow morning. We have a fun first term planned with interactive bible stories, crafts, games, memory verses and prayer activities. During our first term, we will be learning about God’s unfailing love for us through looking at the life of Joseph, Ruth and Jonah. Kingdom Kids meet in the Cathedral Hall following the children’s song in the 10:00am Cathedral Praise service.
Pulse:
Pulse will recommence tomorrow at 7.:5pm. We will be meeting in ‘The Base’ (Youth for Christ building). We are really looking forward to catching up with old and new faces for a night of games, food and hearing what our young people would like to see in the term ahead. Pulse is for all young people in first year to upper sixth.
Creche:
Creche is back! It has been wonderful to see so many little ones aged 0-3 in our services. From tomorrow morning parents will be able to leave their little ones in creche from 9:50am or when the primary school children leave for Kingdom Kids. Creche will be held in the Cathedral Hall. It will be run by safeguarded volunteers. Please note that creche will continue in the Clayton Hall via audio link for the 11.30am service. Also there will be no creche at our combined services.
Thank you to all of the organists who took part in our very successful organ relay this afternoon.
We are delighted with the support of those who participated and of everyone who came along during the day to enjoy the music and all those who donated.
We can report that a fantastic amount of £720 was raised for Parish Funds.
Here is a recording of the day - all 5 hours of it!! Feel free to scroll through the recording (disclaimer: we had a camera issue during the afternoon which meant we had to switch cameras but you should be able to enjoy all the music, regardless).
Starting on Wednesday evening at 7:30pm, a course of study on the Apostles' Creed.
‘I believe in God, the Father Almighty …’ The Apostles’ Creed is recited by Christians throughout the world each Sunday. For many it is a dull routine, and for others, it is spoken with confusion or doubt, rather than with confidence and joy. Do we really need creeds? Increasingly, people do not like the idea of pinning truth down. Others want to stick to the Bible alone, and think that creeds have no place in our worship. But most churches have found it helpful to have a summary of Christian beliefs.
Creeds summarise who we are, they teach us what is important and they help us avoid error. In modern business language, they are our ‘identity documents’. This course aims to fill out the content of the short statements of this creed which are so familiar to us. In ten studies, it shows how they are derived from the Bible—the teaching of the apostles—and what the significance of this momentous formula is for our daily lives.
