Cup of Cold Water Ministry under scrutiny in funding dispute
A community fundraiser and hotel project tied to the Cup of Cold Water Ministry faces financial trouble as donors report large, unaccounted sums and unpaid salaries. Rev. P. Earl Fry and Mrs. Blossom Walberg defend their roles while many elderly supporters seek repayment or reuse of their notes. The situation prompts investigations as donors recount loans and gifts from 100 to 10,000 dollars and confrontations over misused funds.
