Ring cleric for a change (6)
I believe the answer is:
circle
'ring' is the definition.
('circle' can be a synonym of 'ring')
'cleric for a change' is the wordplay.
'for a change' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cleric' is an anagram of 'CIRCLE'.
(Other definitions for circle that I've seen before include "Section of theatre; group of friends" , "Clique; loop" , "Cycle - enclosure" , "Theatre seating tier" , "London Underground line represented in yellow" .)
