I find those churches much nicer than the McChurches the US Catholic Church has been building of late.

I've been to Our Lady of Walsingham only once, several years ago, when the idea of becoming a Catholic was only percolating in my mind. It was a lovely service, full of Grace, and with excellent music. But it was very, entirely, and completely Roman Catholic in its essence. I don't see that as a bad thing. I suspect the Anglican Use Liturgy is superior to the "spirit of Vatican II" liturgy now used in the Novus Ordo mass. I hope that with the coming Latinization (in translation) of the NO mass, that I will find it superior to both. TLM is the only truly classic mass that I've heard. I was very interested in the schismatists of the Episcopal church, until *I* became a confirmed Catholic. Now I really don't care. I did like Our Lady of Walsingham, and I can't wait to go and receive Communion there. Likewise, I look forward to receiving at our local Tridentine Indult church, The Church of the Annunciation, possible the loveliest church in the city, IMHO.
