Dunblane Cathedral 
Dunblane Cathedral, built upon a Christian site first established by Saint
Blane around the year 600, is one of the few surviving medieval churches in
Scotland. It is home to a Congregation of over 1200 members and serves the
parish of Dunblane and its surroundings. Dunblane Cathedral is part of the
Church of Scotland and Presbyterian in its constitution. This website
contains information about every aspect of the Cathedral's life, through which
we wish to foster a close affinity with everyone in our community. Our
worship and all our activities are held open to anyone who might wish to
participate as a member or a friend, and whether or not you have any formal
Church connection you are invited to share in any part of our Congregational
life and to seek the help of this church if it can be of any service to you.
 Statement
of Purpose
Dunblane Cathedral exists, as a congregation of the Church of Scotland, for the purpose
of reflecting the Love of God to all people regardless of belief or membership of the
Church, to be a place where any and all may experience God's presence and to be a
fellowship which seeks to nourish and sustain its faith through worship, friendship, care
and education.
In response to the Love of God, the congregation seeks to serve the community in every
aspect of its life and to promote the Christian values of concern for others, forgiveness,
reconcilliation, truth and integrity, acknowledging that we ourselves do not always live
up to those values.
From the Minister
 We think of our Congregation in the Cathedral as an important feature of our
community life. The Church is placed within our community as a constant reminder of
the importance of faith and the difference faith can make. Behind the restlessness
and discontent we all sometimes feel, behind the fear which sometimes haunts us and the
problems which so often manifest themselves in society today, there is the fundamental
question of life's meaning. Is life simply an accident born of the dust, with no
ultimate purpose to it and no higher destiny ahead of it? Or is it really possible
that at the heart of the universe there is a personal God who cares and loves, and who
calls us to care and love also?
 Our Cathedral, by its very presence in our midst,
reminds us of the deeper dimensions of life itself. It says to us that life which
has no touch with the eternal is a poor and aneamic thing. A Cathedral stands here
so that we may find in it the presence of God. That through its beauty, its
grandeur, its worship and its stillness, we may be given vision, insight, courage and
peace. That we may see through to the heart of all things. That our life may
find its meaning.
We invite you to associate yourself with our worship or with any of our activities, in
the assurance that you will always be welcome among us.
