How do Anglican churchs celebrate Christmas?
Apart from a small group of Anglicans that represent the Catholic wing of the Anglican denomination - usually called 'AngloCatholics' - Anglicans do not celebrate the 'mass', but instead call the same service Holy Communion, The Lord's Supper or the Eucharist, depending upon the individual local church's tradition. Also, apart from the group named above, most Anglicans reject the doctrine of transubstantiation, as it is in conflict with scripture, and is warned against in the 39 Articles of Faith of the Anglican Church as leading to superstition surrounding the consecrated bread and wine. Anglicans, then, mostly regard the Communion as a memorial of Jesus' death and resurrection, regard the bread and wine as symbols of his body and blood, and reject the Catholic doctrine of resacrifice and the real bodily presence of Christ at the service in favour of his spiritual presence. That all said, most Anglicans celebrate Holy Communion weekly or, at least, have the opportunity of celebrating weekly, although in some churches there are mid-week services of Holy Communion as well.

Do protestant make the sign of the cross?
Yes, we do, although many do not. Making the sign of the cross is typically associated with those who identify themselves as 'High Church', or 'catholic' (with a small 'c' here). Making the sign of the cross is, however, a purely personal choice and Anglicans from all liturgical backgrounds do so.
Of those Anglicans who chose to cross, they make the sign at the invocation of the Holy Trinity, that is to say 'In the name of the Father &c.' Anglicans also cross before receiving the Sacrament of the Eucharist, and when remembering the dead in their prayers.
Many also chose to cross themselves with Holy Water from the font, especially during the renewal of baptismal rights at Easter.

Why do some churches have no holy water?
Holy Water is a reminder of our Baptism and it remits the stain of venial sin along with imparting a blessing.
694 Water. The symbolism of water signifies the Holy Spirit's action in Baptism, since after the invocation of the Holy Spirit it becomes the efficacious sacramental sign of new birth: just as the gestation of our first birth took place in water, so the water of Baptism truly signifies that our birth into the divine life is given to us in the Holy Spirit. As "by one Spirit we were all baptized," so we are also "made to drink of one Spirit." Thus the Spirit is also personally the living water welling up from Christ crucified as its source and welling up in us to eternal life. (CCC 694)
" ...Thirdly, because they include a movement of reverence for God and Divine things; and in this way a bishop's blessing, the sprinkling of holy water, any sacramental anointing, a prayer said in a dedicated church, and anything else of the kind, conduce to the remission of venial sins. ...." (Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica; Question 87, Article 3, I Answer That...)
Did Henry VIII destroyed the Church of England?
Later on in his life, when he was very old for Tudor standards, Henry did go bankrupt because he spent too much of his money on feasts and parties. Henry wanted a glorious golden tomb but he could not afford it and was made to have a tomb out of stone. Henry went bankrupt a bit earlier than this as well and that is why he had the churches stripped, so he could sell the materials and objects that were inside the churches.
I hope this helps you.
