Church council (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

synod

'church council' is the definition.
(type of church assembly)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for synod that I've seen before include "Ecclesiastic council" , "Ecclesiastical gathering" , "Ecumenical council" , "Council of bishops" , "council meeting" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Telegraph, The Independent, The New York Times, The Sunday Times, the LA Times, the Sydney Morning Herald, the Penny Press, the Evening Standard, The Mirror and The Guardian.
