I explicitly said, I think more than once, that they can't be leaders of congregations. They can, however, be leaders of other women and children within the church. My church dug very deeply into this while deciding what doctrinal positions are most in line with scripture.
Stance is no woman pastors but they can take up offerings, give prayer during the service, stand in on a temporary basis for Bible classes in the event of absence but not as a permanent or long term situation and only then using the material that was already being used by the regular teacher. Among other things, they can teach women-only classes, children, help and organize non-teaching aspects of events, and so on.
They can't be Pastors . You left that out. All believers should be able to skillfully handle the Word of God regardless of Gender.
