Our Mission
We are an affiliate of the National Association of Pastoral Musicians. With the support of the Music Sub Committee of the Albany Diocesan Liturgical Commission, we work to foster education opportunities for our pastoral musicians in the Diocese of Albany. Through our events and network of musicians, we build community and offer support to meet the liturgical needs of the Diocese.
We encourage you to contact us and let us know how we can help you in your ministry. For membership please contact Richard Putorti.
