    2. A joyous desire to work with and under the authority of the pastor.
    3. Humility from the perspective of a highly visible position in the church.
    4. An ability to recruit and maintain volunteers.
    5. A good conflict manager.
    6. A unifier in the church.
    7. Transparency and healthy communication skills.
