===Synods=== Synods are UCA councils which roughly correspond to state boundaries. Each synod meets about once per year, with a standing committee to represent it between sessions. Synod responsibilities include the promotion and encouragement of the church's mission, theological and ministerial education, and overseeing property matters.<ref name="2015-regulations">{{cite web |url=https://assembly.uca.org.au/images/resources/Regulations_Policies/2015_Regulations-updatedSeptember2016.pdf |pages=75β78 |title=The Uniting Church in Australia Regulations |access-date=7 November 2016 }}</ref> There are six synods:<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uca.org.au|title=Uniting Church in Australia Assembly - Home|website=uca.org.au}}</ref> * [[Uniting Church in Australia, Synod of New South Wales and the ACT|Synod of New South Wales and the ACT]] (formerly the NSW Synod)<ref>{{cite web |url=http://nswact.uca.org.au/ |title=Uniting for the common good. |publisher=Synod of NSW and the ACT}}</ref> * [[Uniting Church in Australia, Synod of Queensland|Synod of Queensland]]<!--this seems to be the formal name, but [[Queensland Synod]] is also common--><ref>{{cite web |url=http://ucaqld.com.au/ |title=The Uniting Church in Australia Queensland Synod}}</ref> * [[Uniting Church in Australia, Synod of South Australia|Synod of South Australia]]<ref>{{cite web |url=http://sa.uca.org.au/ |title=Uniting Church SA - Uniting Church.
