The 10 leopard skins

When church let out today I asked Ellie her least favorite question. “What did you learn about today in Sunday School?” … After the obligatory resistance to answering, she told me that she learned about the leopard skins. Intrigued, I asked her to tell me about these leopard skins. I hadn’t heard of it before. She was surprised (because, dad knows everything, right? lol).

Turns out that there were 10 people who were infected with a disease that made their skin fall off, and if they touched someone, they got infected with leopard skin too! Anyway, long story short, they asked Jesus for help, he told them to go see the priests and they would be healed. They did this, were healed and no longer had leopard skin! Sadly, only one of them came back to thank Jesus for the miracle. I did my best to not laugh as I told her that i’m sure Jesus appreciated the one leopard skinned man who came back to say thanks, because everyone (even Jesus) appreciates getting a thanks when they help someone out.
