Jesus healed several people in this chapter,  including total social outcasts (lepers) with a touch.  Who needs our touch today, even if (ESPECIALLY IF!) they are outcasts by our society?

Leprosy analogous to mortal sin.  Jesus told the lepers to “show yourself to the priest”, just as WE must show ourselves to a priest in the Sacrament of Reconciliation to be declared clean of our “leprosy” of serious sin.

Jesus’ healing is available to ALL!  ( The Centurion was a Gentile.)

Our relationship with Jesus needs to be our #1 priority.  (2 examples where they were not.)
