Well Moments Book Launch

May 3 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Well Moments Book Launch

15 years ago, a fresh out of college, Ashley Thomas tried to hide in the corner of a prayer group at an organization on Milwaukee’s near northside that her church sent her to connect with. She encountered the unexpected as she was met with authenticity, community and an opportunity to see her own worth. As a division 1 athlete at UW- Madison, Ashley was formerly defined by her successes in basketball- in Milwaukee, Ashley began finding her identity elsewhere.

Today, as the CEO of Hope Street, pastor, author and winner of the 2023 Women of Faith Award, Ashley Thomas is releasing her story of transformation.

Ashley shared her story in a chapter book alongside a children’s book. By attending the book launch, Sunday, May 3rd at Good Harvest in Pewaukee, you can be the first to get a copy of both. The open house style event is free to attend between 2-5pm. Get a copy of the books and stay for appetizers, drinks, live acoustic music, book readings and socializing. The event is largely indoor with live book readings at 2:30, 3:30 and 4:30pm. Children’s outdoor activities will include coloring and a playground.

The books:
Well Moments for Kids is a colorful book of stories for people who desire authentic connections with others and with God. When Ashley became a mom, the Lord placed a new longing on her heart—to help her children understand the beautiful work happening at Hope Street. Well Moments for Kids is a project that grew from that place. It shares the story of Hope Street through the eyes of her children, offering a glimpse into the love, restoration, and faithfulness of God woven throughout it all.

With a similar cadence to Greg Boyle’s Tattoos on the Heart, Ashley’s chapter book, Well Moments: Stories Inside a Greenhouse for People shares Ashley’s story as she intersects with men, women and children in search of restoration and hope.
