“Miracles really do happen,” according to Julieta.
The 56-year-old says her prayers were answered after she lost her twin boys and years later, she had a healthy baby boy, named Leo.
“After the twins died, I wasn’t sure how my life would go, and when the diagnosis and prognosis for Leo were given that he might not survive and the pregnancy would be difficult, I didn’t know for sure if God would perform a miracle,” she recalls.
“But my faith remained unchanged and I just focused on that bit of faith I had and continued to pray, to believe, to talk to Leo’s spirit in the womb,” Juliet adds.
A patch of green land, located between the M6 and M42 motorways near Coleshill in the United Kingdom, has been chosen to host a giant new national Christian monument, and Juliet’s story will be part of it.
Called the “Eternal Wall of Answered Prayer,” the white concrete structure will reach the height of 12 double-decker buses and be made up of one million bricks, making it the largest Christian monument in the United Kingdom.
“You’ll be able to point your phone at any of the bricks and your phone will turn on, and then it will tell you the story of hope that’s hidden inside each one,” explains the project’s founder, Richard Gamble.
Richard Gamble left his job at Leicester City to make the project a reality.
The idea came to him instantly, while he was casually drawing a cross across Leicestershire during Easter in 2004.
He later quit his job to make the dream a reality.
Due to its busy location, which is also close to the HS2 rail line, Richard reckons it will be seen by 800,000 people every day.
A private benefactor has donated the land and is covering most of the £40 million cost, but Richard and his team are raising funds to cover the final works of the project, such as the visitor centre, car park and landscaping.
They are calling on people to come forward with their answered prayers – so far they have had 125,000.
Construction is underway and it is hoped that the monument will be completed in 2028. /Telegraph/
