Former football club chaplain Richard Gamble plans to build a national landmark made of bricks representing one million answered prayers. ‘The Wall’ would be the size of 62 semi-detached houses. The Royal Institute of British Architecture hopes to open a design competition in the summer. Mr Gamble wants the monument, with a Christian message, to be seen by thousands of passing drivers on a motorway. ‘I'm going to get Christians from all over the UK to buy a £10 brick and tell us what prayer God has answered for them. Then people driving past The Wall will be able to see that Jesus has answered a million prayers. Instinctively we remember big prayers that Jesus has answered, but Jesus is interested in the little things in life as well. I'm hoping and praying that we will have all the Church responding to this with an entire range of different answers to prayers.’
Crosswinds Prayer Trust was founded in 1994, at Nailsea, near Bristol in the South-west of England by Canon John Simons. Its aim is to mobilise, inform, connect and equip people in Christian Prayer...
