As the leper’s body was healed, his soul experienced conversion also. Overcome with remorse for his sins, he began to weep bitterly, accusing himself for all the pain he had caused others.

Pouring out gratitude and blessings, he announced to Francis that that day he was going to Paradise. | As the leper’s body was healed, his soul experienced conversion also.
