Much more research is needed on St Tekla of  Iconium.  If one goes to the home page of the Orthodox Church in America and looks up St Tekla, one sees that she DID preach (along side St Paul, maybe).  

Now, we would have to relook at all that has been written in the past about her in possible light of new evidence.  This will not be easy and will definitely create major problems for many Catholics who have closed minds.

I, for one, would be willing to wait with an open mind until the new research is completed.
