COLLECTIVE NOUNS INTRIGUE!

At a recent fish-fry with friends at the Tackers, my on-going intrigue with collective nouns surfaced. 

Sometimes a topic of discussion can take its own turn as that night I shared a term I had read in a detective story. Pam's phone helped jog my memory when I could only come up with the first letter. 
M-- for a group of crows. 
A "murder" of crows. 

Today I saw said group of raucous crows at GAC---so large they could fit right in with Poe's ravens. 
That sighting had me pondering other collective nouns as my thoughts returned to that time with Lynn, Connie and Pam.

What is an all encompassing noun for believers in fellowship? (Acts 2:24)
Is their a collective noun for faith folks?
Bevy of Believers. 
Calm of Christians.
Choir of Christians.
Congregation of Worshippers.
Folks of faith. 
Grace-forged friends = fellowship.* (1 John 1:7)

How about, "All the Above?"
