      • The Church of Ireland Gazette is a monthly magazine promoting the Christian faith, and covers the activities of the Church of Ireland across all its dioceses in Ireland (North and South). Although associated with the Church of Ireland (Anglican) the Gazette's editorial is formally Independent. Published in Lisburn, County Antrim, the magazine distributes about 5,000 copies monthly. It is published on the second Friday of each month.
      Established and first published in March 1856 by the Church of Ireland, as a monthly journal under the title, The Irish Ecclesiastical Gazette (The Church of England's paper was called The Ecclesiastical Gazette), the Gazette became weekly in 1880. Its name was changed to The Church of Ireland Gazette in 1900. The publication reverted to monthly in January 2019. The Gazette was published from 61 Middle Abbey Street, Dublin, (where James Charles & Sons Printers, were based, until 1897 when a new company was formed Church of Ireland Printing and Publishing Ltd. ) up until the 1960s, while it survived the rising in 1916 it was unable to publish that week, and had a joint week the week after.
      Irish Church Directory / The Church of Ireland Directory was also published from the middle abbey street office from 1862 until 1966 when it moved to Mark Street, in Dublin.
