she was drawing a salary or receiving any benefits. Just a thought. I have seen all sorts of goofy reasons for taking folks off a payroll.
Frankly, in most churches, the women are the glue that holds them together. I have no great fondness for many parts of Paul's writings (as do many thoughtful Christian women). It is not the writings per se, but how they are taken out of context and interpreted to fit less than spiritual motives. Christ stood for many things, but the suppression of women was not one of them.
