a churchman Explanation: In this context, it is unclear how was the mentioned person related to the Church/clergy (or, may be, even to a particular church building). Therefore, a word with looser meaning is needed. 'Churchman' usially means 'a clergyman' but may also mean just 'a member of the church', 'a churchgoer', 'a believer'. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/churchman |
