From the homily
Fr. David was the celebrant at noon Mass today. The Gospel was on the healing of the ten lepers. Fr. David went through a few (rather gruesome) details of what leprosy does to a person's body, then remarked that it was 'a living death'. He then commented that, horrific as the disease was, only one out of the ten who were healed was properly grateful. However, Christ gave His life to heal us of our sins, which can bring us to the ultimate 'living death'- eternal separation from God. "And are even one out of ten of us grateful ?"
