[[Image:The Ecclesiarchy.jpg|250px|right|thumb|Agents of the Ecclesiarchy.]]
The Ecclesiarchy is not part of the [[Adeptus Terra]], but a wholly separate organisation. At its head is the [[Ecclesiarch]], who, by tradition, is always one of the [[High Lords of Terra]]. Below him are the [[Cardinal]]s, of which there are several thousand. Below the Cardinals are the [[Ministorum Priest]]s: [[Preacher|Pontifices]], [[Confessor]]s, [[Missionary|Missionaries]] and [[Preacher]]s.
The Ministorum's ruling body is the ''[[Holy Synod]]'', comprising the organisation's Cardinals.
