I was following some tweets over the weekend that had me excited about what God is doing here in Toronto, including at [Grace Fellowship Church](http://www.gfcto.com/?ref=dashhouse.com), a church near where I pastor.

> [@PastorPWMartin](http://twitter.com/?ref=dashhouse.com#!/PastorPWMartin/status/23921902527451137) About 30 folks along with 1 pastor get sent out from [@gfcto](http://twitter.com/?ref=dashhouse.com#!/gfcto) tomorrow. What strange emotions I feel tonight.

> [@julianlfreeman](http://twitter.com/?ref=dashhouse.com#!/julianlfreeman/status/24095437577265152) After 11 years, today is the final Sunday for me & my family [@gfcto](http://twitter.com/?ref=dashhouse.com#!/gfcto). Searching for words of thanks, but finding they all fall short.

> [@PastorPWMartin](http://twitter.com/?ref=dashhouse.com#!/PastorPWMartin/status/24221996019621889) And so they are gone. GFC East is launched. Joy. Sorrow. Anticipation. Fear. Joy. “…but if it dies, it bears much fruit.”

I can’t tell you how moved I was to read these tweets, and excited to know that this young church was planting a new church once again. These are guys I appreciate – Julian just spoke at Richview a week ago – and I love seeing how God is using them.

Julian has [posted](http://julianfreeman.ca/church-plant/church-plant-updates?ref=dashhouse.com) more information on the church plant, along with some ways that we can support him in prayer.

I’ve been in Toronto a long time, and I can’t remember being so excited about what God is doing. Please pray for [Grace Fellowship Church](http://www.gfcto.com/?ref=dashhouse.com), for the new church plant, for my friends [Paul Martin](http://preacherthoughts.blogspot.com/?ref=dashhouse.com) and [Julian Freeman](http://julianfreeman.ca/?ref=dashhouse.com) – and for God to continue to do his good work in Toronto and beyond.
