Fruits of the Eucharist

"Father, may the food we receive in the Eucharist help our eternal redemption. Keep within us the vigor of your Spirit and protect the gifts you have given your Church….." (Communion Prayer on the Feast of Pentecost)

One important fruits of the Eucharist which I love is that it keeps within us the vigor of the Holy Spirit. That is to say, as we receive Jesus in the Eucharist, we are refilled with the Holy Spirit.

We ask the Father in the above Communion prayer to protect the gifts He has lavished on the Church. Some of these gifts are:

  • Holy Spirit
  • Blessed Virgin Mary
  • Word of God
  • Sacraments
  • Communion of the Saints
