October 18, 2007 - Started to move items into Archive as the AACCA no longer exists under the umbrella of the Diocese. This web site will be restructured in the coming months to reflect this.
The AACCA and the AACCA Central Council has been replaced by the "Sacred Music Council" - a new organization of the Diocese. Information from this new group will be posted to this site as needed.
This web site will continue to function and will not be part of the official communication arm of the newly formed Sacred Music Council.
