religious fellowship
Shared spiritual bond
Religious fellowship is the spiritual community and mutual support shared among believers of a faith.
It emphasizes gathering together for worship, study, and encouragement: The church provides religious fellowship for new members.
Fellowship in this sense is both the bond between members and the group itself—a congregation may call itself a fellowship.
