EKKLHSIA (I hope I spelled it right)

I have heard that this word means: "the called out ones", "church",
"congregation", etc.

However, I have recently heard that this word could mean "a group of people
who guard the walls of a city, fort or castle". Have any of you heard this
definition? Is it from Classical Greek?

Thanks
