noun🔗ShareThe actual, substantial presence of the body of Christ with the bread and wine of the sacrament of the Lord's Supper — as opposed to transubstantiation."While Catholics believe in transubstantiation, some other Christians hold to impanation, believing the bread and wine remain bread and wine even as the body of Christ is also present during communion.
