Such a position does not exist. "Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve." - 1 Timothy 2:11-13 The churches are under GOD's righteous judgment - "For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?" - 1 Peter 4:17 |

It exist by principle , deaconess is a feminine part of deacon. All the people chosen for the office were male. If a female had been among them ,she would have been called deaconess. It's simple grammar. But later certain women function in such responsibilities such as phebe. |

Check this scripture out. Romans 16:1-2 1 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea: The word "servant " suggest she was a deaconess. |
