Southern Baptist Convention will vote on whether to ban churches with any women pastors.
The vote is partly the culmination of events set in motion two years ago .
Critics say the amendment would amount to a further narrowing in numbers and mindset for the nation’s largest Protestant denomination.
SBC membership has dipped below 13 million , nearly a half-century low.
The issue has been a “canary in the coalmine” for liberal denominations, some say.
Others point out Pentecostal and other denominations have had women pastors for generations and remain theologically conservative.
The SBC ’s top administrative body opposes the amendment.
Some churches with women pastors are heavily involved with the convention.
