V. The Spirit and the Church In the Last Days
739
Because the Holy Spirit is the anointing of Christ, it is Christ who, as the
head of the Body, pours out the Spirit among his members to nourish, heal, and
organize them in their mutual functions, to give them life, send them to bear
witness, and associate them to his self-offering to the Father and to his
intercession for the whole world. Through the Church’s sacraments, Christ
communicates his Holy and sanctifying Spirit to the members of his Body. (This
will be the topic of Part Two of the Catechism.)
