A Message From Hanna Zack Miley
I wrote A Garland for Ashes to honor my parents, to remember those who suffered unjustly and to share my long, slow journey to forgiveness.
In these lesson plans based on my book, Daniel Malakowsky has delved deeply into my story and has posed searching questions that relate to all of us and our present experiences. I am grateful that we both have this opportunity to connect with your lives.
