How to be a good church secretary?

A good church secretary has a combination of administrative experience, organizational skills, and friendliness. You should be familiar with your many daily tasks, as well as the ongoings of the church. Work hard to keep all files, databases, and work areas neat and organized. A church secretary may be the first face people see when coming to the church, so it’s important to greet congregation members and guests warmly. Treat them in a friendly and professional manner at all times. Strive for accuracy in your bookkeeping and database work. Lastly, be discreet—you have access to personal information about the congregation, and it should be kept private, shared only with those on staff who need to know.
