Synod of North America
The Synod of North America is a governing body within certain Protestant denominations, such as the Reformed or Presbyterian churches. It serves as a regional assembly of church leaders—pastors, elders, and other representatives—that collaborates to oversee church policies, validate church missions, and promote spiritual unity across member churches. The synod discusses theological issues, supports church growth, and makes decisions to ensure consistent doctrine and practice. Essentially, it functions as a regional council that helps maintain integrity and coordination among churches within its scope.
