Getting ready
Age & adult help
Following several illustrated panels and reading speech or story text adds a literacy demand to the colouring.
Read panels aloud and help children follow their order. Check the story and wording before using it with younger children.
What you’ll need
Printer, paper, colouring pencils or crayons. An adult reader may be helpful for younger children.
Time & preparation
One comic page, including colouring. Shared reading and discussion are additional.
Age is an editorial estimate for the motor and reading demands of this format. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested.
Check the file before you print for a group, and allow for any extra help the kids might need.
Printing tipsThe story behind the craft
Bible passage: Ruth 2–4
Ruth gleans to provide food for Naomi, and Boaz treats her with care. Through the family’s responsibilities and choices, Ruth and Boaz marry, and the story ends with a child and renewed hope for Naomi.
Main takeaway: Ruth’s story shows care working through practical generosity and family responsibility.
While you colour the panels
Read the panels in order, pausing at a change in a character’s action or understanding.
Connect gathering grain with Boaz’s protection and the later family celebration. Let children notice Naomi’s place in the ending as well as the marriage.
Younger learners can describe an action in one panel. Older learners can compare a caption with its Bible passage and discuss what a short comic leaves out.
Questions to explore
- How did Ruth help Naomi?
- How did Boaz make the field safer for Ruth?
- What brought renewed hope to the family?
Common questions

Printed captions include “Ruth gleans in Boaz's field, showing her loyalty to Naomi” and “Ruth and Naomi return to Bethlehem after losing their husbands”.

The original PDF pages are A4 portrait. RuthMarriesBoaz_Ruth4.pdf: print the page for each learner or group. Print single-sided. On US Letter paper, select Letter and Fit or shrink to the printable area; the originals are not separate Letter-sized files.
