| 释义 |
Oasis Church is a Christian church in Los Angeles, California. HistoryThe church began as a Bible-study group of ten people in Beverly Hills, California. From that community, Philip and Holly Wagner decided to found a church, which had about thirty initial parishioners.[1] One of the original members of the Bible-study group was singer Donna Summer, and more recent members include Viola Davis.[2][3] The congregation moved to the Oasis Theatre in the 1990s, and to the Wilshire Christian Church during the 2010s.[4] By the 2010s, the church had more than three thousand members.[5] It is known for the diversity of its fellowship.[6][7] The church issues funds to support international poverty initiatives, including care for widows, orphans, as well as clean drinking water projects.[8] The church also sponsored the star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Jesus Christ, unveiled in 1998, with the intention of creating a “Walk of Faith”. The star was located in front of one of the church’s previous locations.[9] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.risenmagazine.com/oasis-church-pastors-philip-holly-wagner/|title=Oasis Church Pastors Philip and Holly Wagner - Risen Magazine|publisher=Risen Magazine}} 2. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/13/fashion/mosaic-oasis-hillsong-churches-los-angeles.html |publisher=New York Times |title=Mosaic Oasis}} 3. ^https://nytimes.com/2015/12/13/fashion/mosaic-oasis-hillsong-churches-los-angeles.html?referer= 4. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.frontgatemedia.com/oasis-church-celebrates-new-location-expands-outreach-to-the-la-community-2/ |publisher=Front Gate Media |title=Oasis Church Celebrates New Location}} 5. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.daystar.com/guest-guide/philip-wagner/ |title=Philip Wagner |publisher=Day Star}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://books.google.ca/books?id=jrR6ZjmR-rUC&pg=PA141|title=Church Diversity|first=Scott|last=Williams|date=1 January 2011|publisher=New Leaf Publishing Group|page=141}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2016/07/10/local-churches-preach-messages-of-hope-inclusion-acceptance-in-wake-of-recent-violence/|title=Local Churches Preach Messages Of Hope, Inclusion, Acceptance In Wake Of Recent Violence|publisher=CBS}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://books.google.ca/books?id=X9_UCwAAQBAJ&pg=PT218|title=Unlock Your Dream: Discover the Adventure You Were Created For|first=Philip|last=Wagner|date=20 December 2016|publisher=Crown Publishing Group|page=218}} 9. ^{{cite book |url=https://books.google.ca/books?id=EXgH-b4qxxMC&pg=PA21 |page=21 |title=Hollywood Faith: Holiness, Prosperity, and Ambition in a Los Angeles Church |author=Gerardo Marti |publisher=Rutgers University Press|isbn=9780813543499 |year=2008 }} External links
