Holy Name of Mary Roman Catholic Church in Ellicottville is celebrating its 175th anniversary with a special Mass at 5 p.m. on Sept. 10, followed by a catered dinner at the Ellicottville American Legion starting at 6:30 p.m. Parish leaders are inviting current and former parishioners along with the wider community to take part in marking nearly two centuries of the church's presence in the village. The celebration caps a year of milestone anniversaries for local institutions around Ellicottville. Organizers are encouraging anyone with ties to the parish to attend both the liturgy and the dinner that follows.
