reverend's
Belonging to clergy
Reverend's is the possessive form of reverend, a title for Christian clergy.
It indicates something belonging to or associated with a minister or pastor: the reverend's sermon moved the congregation, I borrowed the reverend's Bible.
The form appears in casual reference; formal usage typically repeats the full title with the person's name.
