• It augments our union with Christ. Communion is the intimate union with Christ. “He who east my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me and I in him.” (CCC 1393). • Holy Communion separates us from sin. The Eucharist cleanses us from past venial sins, and preserves us from future sins, including mortal sins. (CCC 1393-1395). • The Eucharist reinforces the unity of the Mystical Body, the Church. (CCC 1396) • Communion commits us to the poor, that is, the brothers and sisters of Jesus (CCC 1397).
