| 释义 | {{orphan|date=November 2013}} Mount Hollywood Congregational Church is a United Church of Christ congregation in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles. Mount Hollywood was founded in 1905.[1] John Raitt was once a soloist in the choir, and Los Angeles County Supervisor John Anson Ford was a member.[1] Membership had been as high as 600 in the 1920s, when it built its sanctuary, but is around 50 today.[1] In 2012 the church sold its sanctuary, citing high maintenance costs, and moved into a converted storage shed behind Hollywood Lutheran Church.[1] The congregation has long been an advocate for social justice. In 1941 it came to the aid of Hollywood Independent Church, a Japanese-American congregation, by safeguarding the church's property and homes of its members after they were sent to internment camps.[1] All of the ministers in Mount Hollywood's history have been pacifists.[1] The church's altar has a wooden cross made from camphor wood off of a tree in the yard of a church that had been bombed in Hiroshima. The cross is inscribed with "He is our peace."[1] The Rev. Anne Cohen was installed as the church's pastor on Nov. 3, 2013.[1] 1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Lelyveld, Nita. (2013, November 9).
