A '''synod''' is an ecclesiastical or advisory council of a church, usually [[bishop]]s convened to decide an issue of doctrine, administration or application. The word synod comes from the Greek '''σύνοδος''' (sýnodos) meaning "assembly" or "meeting", and it is synonymous with the Latin word ''concilium'' meaning "council".
