Church of the Holy Family, Catholic parish church in New Rochelle, United States.
The Church of the Holy Family is a Catholic parish located on Clove Road in New Rochelle, serving over 1,200 families in the area. The building houses religious services and educational programs for the surrounding community.
The parish was founded in 1913 and initially held masses in a former butcher shop before the current church building was completed in 1916. This move allowed the growing congregation to have a permanent home.
The parish brings together people from Caribbean, Southeast Asian, African, and Italian backgrounds who shape the community's spiritual life. This diversity influences how the congregation worships and celebrates together.
The church offers six weekend masses and three weekday services each week for worship. Children from grade four through seven can participate in religious education programs that meet regularly.
The church houses a painting from the 17th century by Italian artist Cesare Dandini depicting the Holy Family and John the Baptist. This artwork was rediscovered in 2021 and represents a surprising treasure within the parish walls.
