There are only two other female conference treasurers in North America. We are proud of you, Carolyn. The Bangwe church in Blantyre, Malawi, has split as a result of wrangling over allowing women to preach in the pulpit. The problem began when the local Women's Ministries Director P. A. Neniwa was not allowed to speak for the International Women's Day of Prayer in March. Administrators suspended the worship services for two weeks and then disbanded the Bangwe and Nimiyango churches.
Women are as free to share the gospel from the pulpit as are their male counterparts.
It makes one wonder what they would have done with Ellen White. It is obvious that this was about more than just women preaching. Men need help too. The difference is that when men want to organize, all they have to do is do it. It took women 90 years to organize and 10 years to get into the Church Manual.
