That would be unique in the history of theism.
I would have to also ask if objectivism included questioning the validity of the beliefs.. without any pressure to conclude that the beliefs are valid.. Seems like atheistic thought would have to be included in the analysis.. I've seen religious groups espouse rational thought towards subjects about anything other than their own beliefs.. No critical analysis going on as to whether their God exists.. makes sense...etc.. and in rare cases where it is attempted the social pressure to come up with the answer that "of course God exists" is too great..
A faith based objectivist community sounds contradictory in real life..
