Below are the names of ALL the women in the NT who preached in public assemblies to men:

But of coarse there were many other men who preached and taught that are not listed either so that kindof taints this particular reasoning in my opinion...
When Luke wrote his account he primarily focused on certain events that surrounded a handful of people at best...
There are enough references to women in the writings though to see that there were at least several mentioned by name that held prominant positions....
To completly "x" them out of teaching/preaching on the basis of them not being exampled would be to "x" out the pastors who held weekly, and even daily, services in the early church...
Unless you think Peter and Paul were translated in a constant whirlwind of services...."Every body just hold on, Paul will be appearing in a moment. Ours is his 14th stop today....."
Besides...."your sons and daughters shall prophesy"
