Sbradshaw: Updated page to reflect close of volunteer project

Updated page to reflect close of volunteer project

-Sacred Music Content (previously LDS Music Content) provides rich music content for Sacred Music, Gospel Library, and the Church music web site. We are looking for volunteers who can read and type in other languages. Anyone with a Church Account can join and help with the following tasks:
+'''Sacred Music Content''' was a volunteer project active between 2011 and 2021 that allowed volunteers to help digitize and prepare content to be published in the Sacred Music app and other official Church channels.
-# '''Transcribing content.''' All of the music that is available from the Church in print needs to be typed so it can be made available digitally as well. This is done on the [https://tech.churchofjesuschrist.org/mobile/mcms/ Music Content Management System (MCMS)].
+The Sacred Music Content project began in 2011. The original purpose of the project was to make English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese hymns and children's songs available in the Sacred Music app (previously LDS Music), which was itself a volunteer project. Since that time, volunteers have digitized thousands of songs in dozens of languages. Music transcribed by volunteers has been published in Sacred Music, Gospel Library, and the Church music website, and more music will be published in the future.
-In order to log in to the Music Content Management System or edit the Languages spreadsheet, you will need to join the project.
+After nearly a decade of volunteer contributions, as of December 2021, the project is now closed to volunteers. This was prompted in part by a need to move music content to a more central content management system, which is only accessible to Church employees.
-== How to join the project ==
+The primary purposes of the Sacred Music Content project have been accomplished and goals have been surpassed. Church employees responsible for music projects are very grateful for the hours contributed in this small part of the Lord's Vineyard, which has benefited Church members worldwide in a tangible way.
-You will need a Church Account, which is the same account used to sign in to other Church web sites.
+Thank you!
