devotee
One who worships
A devotee is someone with strong dedication to a person, cause, activity, or belief.
The word suggests enthusiasm beyond casual interest: a devotee of yoga, devotees of the band followed them on tour.
In religious contexts, a devotee practices fervent worship or follows a spiritual teacher: Krishna devotees chanting in the street.
