Male missionary in the Mormon church (5)

I believe the answer is:

elder

(Other definitions for elder that I've seen before include "Church official; tree" , "Tribal advisor" , "Kind of tree or senior person in tribe" , "Wise guy" , "Tribal leader; tree" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
