Ruby's Trust

Ruby’s Trust is the true story of a woman who lost faith and then faith found her.

A scowling woman and snarling terrier sat on a blanket by the curb of a busy street next to the church parking lot.

The woman had two long gray-streaked braids twining down the sides of her weathered face. Her giant glasses were taped together in several places. She was wearing a tattered sweatshirt and pants, one shoe, one slipper, and weariness.

Cy DeBoer, walking to her car after Bible study, approached the woman and asked, “What’s your name?”

“My name is Ruby.”

In Ruby’s Trust, Cy recounts the beginning of an unlikely friendship that changed two families forever. While sharing stories that are both humorous and heart-wrenching, Cy takes readers on an unforgettable journey, ultimately revealing a side of homelessness many people have never seen.

More than anything, Ruby’s Trust is an endearing story of love and friendship that will enlarge your perspective—and your heart.
