Personally, I am not a big fan of promoting the practice of invoking the Saints (as it was usually absent from the classical Anglican practices). However, I would like to make an exception for the feast of Our Lady. ;-)
I guess it is Anglo-Catholic practices, the Blessed Sacrement devotions is also a common in HK Anglican Cathedrals (St. John and All Saints only), which they also include Laudes Divinae.

This is just the Salve Regine from Sister Act - repackaged as a classic Anglican hymn?? Amazing😂
It's actually a 17th century German hymn, and included in the Roman Missal in 1884!
I am not a fan the way the priest swung the thurible
@@nicholashodgkinson2822It's almost in Eastern Orthodox style, Canon Dwight dela Torre (the celebrant) likes to swing the thurible like this ;)
