A Place Of Faith, Prayer And Christian Life

St. Eugene’s Cathedral is he Mother Church of the Derry Diocese, which stretches from Malin Head to Omagh and from Killygordon to Bellaghy.

St. Eugene’s is also the parish Church of the parish of Templemore where thousands of Catholic people come to worship God. They come each day to celebrate the Eucharist. They come to spend a quiet moment in the presence of God. They come in times of joy to celebrate Baptisms, Weddings, Confirmations, First Holy Communions. They come to pray for healing in the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Sacrament of the Sick. They come in times of sadness, especially for funerals, to take leave of their loved ones and commend them to God in the funeral liturgy.

It was built with the contributions of the people and is part of many family histories. St. Eugene’s Cathedral was solemnly opened in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. It has been ‘teach an phobail’ for the entire twentieth century and it is now poised to remain a symbol of the people’s faith and the place where they will meet and experience God in the new millennium. This website cannot capture, however, the ethos and the aura of a place which is central to the lives of the worshipping community of God’s people in this parish and beyond.

It is hoped that all who view St. Eugene’s with the aid of this site will find it helpful and inspiring.
