St Macartin's Cathedral

Church of Ireland
Congregation: 150 adults (40 under 18)

Our church is in the Anglican Diocese of Clogher in Northern Ireland. If visiting, please make yourself known to us when you arrive at a service and we will acknowledge your presence without causing you the embarrassment of pointing you out!

There is spacious car parking in the church grounds and there are large public car parks very nearby which are free to use on Sundays and outside of 8.00am-6.30pm on other days.

Our Sunday morning services are at 9am - lasting about 40 minutes in the side chapel, and at 11am in the main church lasting about an hour - a little longer if Holy Communion forms part of it. Communion services are generally on the first and third Sundays of the month. The evening services, usually in the side chapel take place at 7.00pm. The one on the last Sunday of the month is one of Holy Communion. Full members of other Christian denominations are welcome to join us at the communion table and children may come for a blessing. If you are unable to come up to the altar but wish to take part, if you make yourself known to one of the duty churchwardens, the minister and his/her assistant will bring the elements to where you are sitting. On the fourth Sunday, we generally have an informal family service, with refreshments provided afterwards.

A Thursday morning service takes place each week at 11am in the side chapel. Holy Communion is celebrated at each of these and the duration is about half an hour to 40 minutes and refreshments are served afterwards.

If you are dropping in just to see round our historic church rather than attend a service, you are most welcome. Entry is free and we are open generally in the mornings and afternoons, Monday to Saturday, from the beginning of May through till mid-October.

If you have any queries, please ring our office between 9am and 12pm Monday to Friday: Telephone 028 66322917 (or outside the UK 0044 28 6632 2917). Alternatively please e-mail us to [email protected]
