Honesty, integrity, and a willingingness to confess while he's misguided. After that, a parish priest desires to be waiting to chop up himself from the politics of a parish, pay attention to the desires of parishioners without dropping sight of Jesus, collaborate with different ministers, and, if a probability, have some skill in homiletics. As pastor of a parish desires all this and intensely almost could desire to have the skill and prepared to take heed to others who understand greater beneficial than he does while it comprises "working the administration" of a parish. (i'm thinking finance committee, extraordinarily.)

First, it depends on whether he wants to get close to you. He's human, as are you, and not everyone will get along.
Other than that, consider how you might get close to anyone else. What exactly comprises a friendship?
A priest is there for service, and acknowledging his role, and being thankful for it are two ways to start. Thank him for his service. Be of service yourself, by being active in your parish. Perhaps you'll have the chance to work together, perhaps go out to lunch, whatever.

Either go to confession or invite him out for coffee.
