Thoughts from St Alphonsus for Every Day-February 17

A SPIRITUAL Communion consists in an ardent desire to receive Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament, and in lovingly embracing him as if we had actually received him. All who wish to advance in the love of Jesus Christ are exhorted to make a spiritual Com­munion at every visit to the Blessed Sacra­ment and at every Mass they hear.
