Church community (6)
I believe the answer is:
parish
'church community' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for parish that I've seen before include "Kind of 2 down - has rip (anag)" , "Rector's responsibility" , "area known to clergyman" , "Administrative area within a diocese" , "Diocesan subdivision" .)
