The story of Jesus healing the ten lepers contains several important insights. For kids, one obvious take-away is the value of gratitude and saying thank you—both to people and especially to God. This story also includes a message of the mercy of Christ. He healed the stricken men, and even though only one returned to say thank you, He did not punish those who neglected to do so. Another interesting note is that the man who did come back was a Samaritan, typically looked down on in Jewish culture. This lesson focuses largely on the element of thanksgiving, but feel free to use whatever methods and emphasis you prefer to communicate the Scripture.
Perhaps this story would better be called the one leper, as our focus is really on the single Samaritan who returned to Jesus in grateful appreciation for healing. God has given us so much in life, and the natural expression of appreciation for His care should be genuine thanks. Being thankful for God’s blessings is not by any means a requirement for salvation, but the Lord loves it when we show gratitude for His work in our lives. Recognizing all that He has done and given, how and why would we not give thanks?

Used it Sunday. Excellent example of being thankful. Used the idea, will you be the 1 to be thankful
My 6 and 7 year olds enjoyed the lesson. We put on red dot stickers and removed them during the story when lepers were going to the priest. We also used the Thank you cards to thank siblings, friends, teachers, parents etc. for whatever the child want to show gratefulness. They were allowed time to do as many as they wanted to fill out.
I liked he activities and I used the “Thank You” activity in a different way but it was great for thanksgiving
