Opening Thoughts
2.For women who today understand themselves to be called to the ministry, these
courageous women who have led the way can serve as role models.
3.I hope church leaders and lay members will realize that women ministers are not
an innovation of the 1970s in the Seventh-day Adventist denomination, but
rather have been woven into the warp and woof of our denominational fiber from
the earliest years. Although in the minority, they have served with distinction,
bringing hundreds, yes, thousands of converts to rejoice in Christ and the
church. Today Adventist women ministers continue this tradition.
