The post-communion collect prays that God's mercy, as given in the "salutary gift"
of Holy Communion, would strengthen us in "fervent love for one another."
We see here that Christian love is one of the fruits of Holy Communion.
What does this mean? This VBS teaches the theme in the five days of the program:

• Day One: God’s love in the Trinity, as marked upon us in Holy Baptism (John 3)
• Day Two: Out of love, Jesus gives His flesh for the life of the world (John 6)
• Day Three: Jesus gives us His love at Holy Communion, and we participate in
  it as a branch to the Vine (John 15)
• Day Four: Jesus teaches love in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 6)
• Day Five: The early church shows an example of Christian charity (Acts 2)
