Nope. Never did forget Priscilla. And YOU said it; she sat BY HER husband. Of course she was part of that team. But it was a team. Never does the Bible say she was an elder.
Remember, the the question of this thread is if a woman can be a 'preacher.' This is not about whether she can minister to another's needs or if she can be a witness. These are easily found as acceptable in scripture. But nowhere do we find a woman being used as an elder in the Church. That is the difference.
