===Liturgical practices=== Anglo-Catholics are often identified by their liturgical practices and ornaments. These have traditionally been characterised by the "six points" of the later Catholic Revival's eucharistic practice: * Eucharistic [[vestment]]s * [[Ad orientem|Eastward-facing orientation]] of the priest at the altar instead of at the north side, the traditional evangelical Anglican practice * Unleavened bread for the Eucharist * Mixing of water with the eucharistic wine * Incense * Lights ([[altar candle]]s) Many other traditional Catholic practices are observed within Anglo-Catholicism, including [[eucharistic adoration]]. Some of these Anglo-Catholic "innovations" have since been accepted by [[broad church]] Anglicans, if not by Evangelical or [[low church]] Anglicans. [[File:The Anglican Missal.jpg|left|thumb|The [[Anglican Missal]] sitting on an altar desk]] Various liturgical strands exist within Anglo-Catholicism: * Some, such as the original members of the Oxford Movement, use official Anglican liturgical texts such as the [[Book of Common Prayer]]. * Some use the modern [[Mass of Paul VI|Catholic rite of Mass]]. * Some use the [[Tridentine Mass|older "Tridentine"]] Catholic rite of Mass, in English or Latin, or liturgies based on it, such as the [[English Missal]] or [[Anglican Missal]]. * Some occasionally use the mediaeval English [[Sarum Rite]], which is broadly similar to the Tridentine Mass, in English or Latin. Preferences for [[Elizabethan English]] and modern English texts vary within the movement. In the United States, a group of Anglo-Catholics at the Episcopal [[Church of the Good Shepherd (Rosemont, Pennsylvania)]] published, under the rubrics of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer, the ''[[Anglican Service Book]]'' as "a traditional-language adaptation of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer together with the Psalter or Psalms of David and additional devotions." This book is based on the 1979 Book of Common Prayer but includes offices and devotions in the traditional language of the 1928 Prayer Book that are not in the 1979 edition. The book also draws from sources such as the [[Anglican Missal]]. In many Anglo-Catholic churches, clergy are referred to as Father, and in places where the priestly ministry of women is accepted, as Mother.
