Church members may be best in prayers (13)
I believe the answer is:
presbyterians
'church members' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'may be best in prayers' is the wordplay.
'may be' is an anagram indicator.
'best'+'in'+'prayers'='bestinprayers'
'bestinprayers' anagrammed gives 'PRESBYTERIANS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for presbyterians that I've seen before include "Nonconformists" , "Followers of a branch of Calvinism - Britney Spears (anag)" , "Followers of John Knox" , "Calvinists" , "Church people" .)
