Summary/Abstract: Synods were an opportunity for the Church to listen to and dialogue between clergy and laity at the local level. In antiquity, they raised important doctrinal and disciplinary issues in the Church in the context of emerging heresies. The documents of these synods still constitute a unique source of theological research. The Katowice synods of 1972-1975 and 2012-2016 expressed common concern “for being the Church and being in the Church”.
