The effects of Holy Communion are: spiritual nourishment of the soul (an increase in sanctifying grace, of the virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit); intimate union of the soul with Christ and with His mystical body through grace and charity; a diminishing or mitigating of sensual passions; a glorious resurrection of the body; the remission of venial sins; the remission in some part or in great part of the temporal punishment due to sin; and spiritual sweetness and delights.
