Firstly it is a pure assumption Junia is a woman. Many names suit either sex.
Second it does NOT say she was an Apostle it says she was note AMONG the Apostles. I am note among painters I am not a painter. I am note among electricians I am not an electrician. I am not among bankers I am not a banker.
There is NOT the slightest Biblical evidence Junia was a preacher in the five-fold ministry since all saved folks preach or should to the unsaved.

Oh, you mean that since women were mentioned, it means they did the same as the men? You sure you want to make that claim?
Acts 2:1...................they(the 120 including women) ALL(the 120 the women included)...........filled all the house where they(the 120 the women included)...there appeared unto them(the 120 the women included) ...sat upon each of them(the 120 the women included) and THEY(the 120 the women included) were ALL(the 120 the women included) filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues.
See how simple it is when you have chapter and verse???????? Which you have neither just assumptions.

Thank you. You just proved that women preached.
Acts 8:1 And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church (women included )which was at Jerusalem; and they (women included) were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
4 Therefore they (women included) that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.
It's clear that women were in the church and were included in the 'they' mentioned in the scriptures above.

13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2:4 (KJV)
Who was present that day?
There were men and women present and Mary was one of them and so if they were all filled with the Holy Ghost then Mary and any other women present were also filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues.
