====== Departments and Position Descriptions ======

===== Introduction =====

==== Use What You Have ====
Before reviewing the detailed list of departments, remember this:  
with our model, **a single person can operate a mini print center**.

Of course, having a team is preferable. But start with what you have.  
If you are available to God and you have a printer, you can already begin the work.

Consider this list not as a heavy structure, but as **a reminder of important areas that should not be neglected**.

With a small team, one or two people may cover multiple departments.  
As God sends more workers, responsibilities can be progressively delegated according to each person’s gifts and skills.
