Holy Family Retreat Center will host its third annual “Taste of Holy Family” Open House on Sunday, Sept. 18, from 1 to 5 p.m. A Mass celebrating the retreat center’s 65th anniversary will follow at 5 p.m.

The campus at Holy Family has seen significant growth over the past few years and is currently home to four distinct yet complementary entities. The public is warmly invited to stop by and sample what these organizations have to offer. The afternoon will consist of tours, live music, refreshments, mini retreat experiences and more.

The four entities on the Holy Family campus are:

• The legacy Holy Family Retreat Center, where individuals of all religious faiths and backgrounds can quiet their minds, nourish their spirits, and explore their connection to God through peace-filled day, evening, and weekend retreats and programs;

• The Copper Beech Institute, where seekers can experience the transformative power of mindfulness and meditation practice to awaken to the fullness of their potential;

• The Golden Thread Gallery, for inspirational art exhibits and talks by professional and emerging artists of various backgrounds, cultures and religions; and

• The Spiritual Life Center, a non-denominational community committed to promoting peace, justice and care of creation by offering programs of spiritual mentoring to individuals, groups, and organizations.

Reservations for the open house are not necessary, but online registration is available for your convenience at www.holyfamilyretreat.org/tasteofholyfamily.  People of all faiths and backgrounds are welcome.

The Holy Family campus is located at 303 Tunxis Rd. in West Hartford.  For more information, visit www.holyfamilyretreat.org/ourcampus.
