"the synod"

In the July Unified's Bishop's Newsletter http://www.neos-elca.org/unified_mailing/2010/07-2010/Bishops_Newsletter.pdf the question was asked "... how it is that you understand "the synod"? Is it the synod staff? Is it the bishop? Is it the worked we do together? ..." Please share you thoughts on this question.

I believe the synod is all of us.
my congregation is working on seeing the synod as all of us walking together but I am a pastor in a small town in a geographically large synod and I think that affects how the folks in the congregation feel about the synod. Especially since the reduction of synod staff and the closing of our nearby synod office.
