Description
Summary:This article contains complete transcriptions of five articles with a focus on women's ministry published in Tongues of Fire, the monthly periodical of a late nineteenth-century British holiness organization, known as the Pentecostal League of Prayer, or the League. Richard Reader Harris (1847-1909), founder of the League, wrote three of the five articles, including his most declarative statement in support of women, titled ‘Female Ministry'. Women authors penned the remaining two transcribed articles: Ms Rains, ‘A Word to Women: Zechariah v. 9', and Dr Katherine Bushnell, ‘Women Preachers: Why Obscure the True Reading?' While the League welcomed more than one hundred women into all of its organizational positions, these articles represent the extent of written affirmations for women in ministry.
