*Ruth: Loyalty and Faith*
*Key Verses:*
*Ruth 1:16-17** (NIV)*16But Ruth replied, “Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you.
Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay.
Your people will be my people and your God my God.
17Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried.
May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and me.”
