The Holy Family
Club officially began on June 15, 1915 with its first formal
meeting. On January 26, 1922 the “ Holy Family Club” adopted
its official Charter of Incorporation and has been an active part of
the Nazareth community ever since that time. The founding
members of the Club had specific purposes for the Club’s formation.
First and foremost the “Club” was founded with the intent of
assisting its active members when in time of need. The primary
function of the “Club” is to maintain a funeral fund and to render
aid in case of sickness or disability
to its active members. The official name of the “Holy Family Club”
is the “Holy Family Sick and Relief Society of Nazareth”. The second
primary purpose for the formation of the “Club” is for the promotion
of Christian life in the spirit of the Roman Catholic Church. The
founding members also envisioned a place where they could gather
with friends for socialization. Today the “Holy Family Sick and
Relief Society of Nazareth”, now referred to as the “Club” has an
active membership of over three hundred members and a social
membership of well over two thousand.
The social
facility at the “Club” downstairs offers a full service bar,
billiard tables, dartboards, and state of the art bowling lanes with
automatic scoring. A number of local bowling leagues make the
“Club” their home throughout the year. Also offered is a light bar
menu which changes on a daily basis.
The “Club” over
the years has become synonymous with excellent food and hospitality
and this is still our strength today. We offer a wide variety of perfectly prepared dishes for your
enjoyment. Combine this with our experienced staff, a private
parking area, convenient location, and a newly renovated upstairs
banquet facility with a full stage, and you have the perfect
ingredients for creating a truly outstanding affair. Our banquet
hall can accommodate two hundred and seventy people and can be used
for all types of gatherings. It is the perfect setting for
weddings, large corporate meetings or functions, anniversaries, or
parties.
Adjoining the
banquet hall is a beautifully appointed bar and hors d’oeuvre area
which in itself can accommodate smaller gatherings of up to eighty
guests. It is a cozy and private setting. In addition all of our
facilities are handicap accessible.
We hope that you
will visit the “Club” soon and allow us to show you one of the
best-kept secrets in the Lehigh Valley. You will not be
disappointed.
