    As many of you know we usually offer our CDs for a freewill offering at our shows. I usually say, "Take what CDs you want and whatever the Lord tells you to put in the can please do, no more no less. Until recently that was very difficult to do on the web because of transaction fees for most web sites. That however has changed.  With my bandcamp web site and special pricing at paypal, I have much lower fees and can now do a freewill offering (with a minimum price of 5.00+S&H for the Physical CD).  I still say, "Put whatever amount the Lord tells you to put in the box and thank you to all of you who enjoy our music"
Thank You Jesus!!!
    P.S. I'd love to add you to our mailing list. Just send an email to Paul@PBforJ.com and put, "Please add me to your mailing list" in the subject line and the body.
God bless and thanks for listening,
Paul

Manna Coffeehouse is a ministry of the International Community EV Free Church 611 W St. Charles Rd Lombard IL 60148 USA.
