I wasn't able to attend traditional Holy Week services this year because, in El Paso, TX, the churches have broken off to some random diocese. Thank you for posting this - you saved my Holy Week!!
The Anglican/Episcopal church is especially rich in providing opening processional hymns from the Middle Ages. The processional cross mounted on a long staff is carried at the head of the procession with candle bearers and choir next in line. The Holy Gospel and clerical celebrant follow. The procession's forward movement is slow paced and dignified.

Yup, Sure is. This video makes me even prouder to be Episcopalian.
