Large religious service I have joined (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

massive

'large' is the definition.
('massive' can be similar in meaning to 'large')

'religious service i have joined' is the wordplay.
'religious service' becomes 'mass' (I've seen this before).
'i have' becomes 'ive'.
'joined' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'mass'+'ive'='MASSIVE'

(Other definitions for massive that I've seen before include "Bulky, weighty" , "Imposing in size" , "Gargantuan" , "Great" , "Not wavering" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
