temple-goers
Faithful at prayer
Temple-goers are people who attend a temple for worship or religious observance.
The term applies across traditions—Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, Mormon, and others: The temple-goers gathered for the morning ritual.
Like churchgoers, the compound suggests regular attendance rather than a single visit.
