Synodality does not designate a simple procedure, but the peculiar way in which the Church lives and operates. The parish, a community of believers, considered the local cell of the Church. This community should live ecclesial communion, traveling together, in a co-responsible manner, where everyone is equal, making visible the global mission of the Church. Hence the challenge of the parish to live synodality. From which, we will analyze in this work the theological foundations of the parish community, in the face of the challenge of synodality. In the first part, we will try to explain the biblical and theological sources of the parish, in the second part we will address what synodality in the Church consists of; to finally understand the challenge of the parish as a space to promote synodality. The main source will be the work The parish by Enzo Bianchi and Renato Corti, in addition to other secondary sources. Assuming that the ecclesial process that we are experiencing commits a synodal way of doing theology, promoting listening, dialogue, to discern and integrate the different contributions to the reality of the Church.
