- Abstract
The article presents the issue by showing the relationship of synodality with collegiality, with the ecclesiology of communion, with the renewal of the Church and with the new evangelization. John Paul II's understanding of synodality was influenced by his participation in the Second Vatican Council and the Council's debate on collegiality. With the reception of the Council's doctrine through local synods and the Synod of Bishops, the connection of synodality with the collegiality of the bishops and at the same time with the community of the Church working together with the hierarchy became apparent. The Pope referred to synods as a "school" of ecclesial communion and mission. The formation of an attitude of participation in Christ's mission played an important role in creating communion. Synodal interaction between bishops, clergy and laity, thanks to this theological grounding, leads to a synthesis of ecclesial structures with the attitude of mature faith. In this way synods, or synodal practice, become important "instruments" for the realization of the Church's communion and the intensification of her mission.
