In this episode we conclude our reading of the Catechism’s treatment of the ‘Sacraments in General’. The sacraments have two effects “Sanctifying Grace” and a “Character.” As an aid to our understanding of these effects we also turn to several articles in the third part of the Summa Theologica concerning these two effects of the sacraments. (ST. IIIa, Q.62 a. 1, Q63. a.1 -3)
