The '''Ministry of Penance''' is part of the [[Covenant]]'s Council <ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/halowars/index.html?fbid=ZsLGVfiLECd ''Official Halo Wars Website'']</ref>.


==Meaning==
The '''Ministry of Penance''' was a branch of the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant's]] bureaucracy.<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/halowars/index.html?fbid=ZsLGVfiLECd ''Official Halo Wars Website'']</ref>
Penance is repentance of sins as well as the proper name of the Catholic and Orthodox Christian Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation/Confession. The word penance derives from Old French and Latin ''poenitentia'', both of which derive from the same root meaning repentance, the desire to be forgiven. This considered, it is highly likely that the Ministry of Penance deals with the justice system within the Covenant.
