Step by step
1
Open Departments
Go to the Departments area to create the ministry structure your leadership team wants to manage inside Masata.
2
Add each ministry area
Create the departments your church runs, such as worship, media, youth, children, administration, outreach, or prayer.
3
Assign the right leader
Set the department leader so ownership is visible and the wider team knows who is responsible.
4
Review department usage over time
Adjust names, leaders, or structure if the ministry model changes so the workspace stays accurate.
Tips and best practices
- Use departments for stable ministry structure, not temporary projects.
- Keep department names simple so reports and lists are easier to scan.
