"The face of God is that of a merciful father, who is always patient... He does not tire of forgiving us if we know how to turn to him with a contrite heart... The Lord never tires of forgiving. We are the ones who tire of asking for forgiveness." (Angelus, March 17, 2013)
The nearest thing to pre-Vatican II Anglo-Catholicism you are likely to find. Perhaps some will revert to the Tridentine Missal as was their wont at one time. Their missal totally in English - no 39 Articles and prayers for pope as pastor inter pares. They, even now, could teach our average parish a thing or two about appropriate liturgy.
I have to give the Anglican this -- they really do vespers well. I think it was the first time when my mother and I were together in England, that we just happened to stop in at St. Pauls on the same day we'd visited to the Tower. We had the unexpect treat of vespers. Some years after, we'd run across a Christmas video done about the Choristers of King's College Cambridge. It's still a favorite holiday treat.
