Queen Esther Ministries

Queen Esther Ministries Women’s Retreat was founded by Pastor Esther K. Faulkner in 1994, born from her personal journey of healing and inspired by her parents, Chief Apostle Monroe R. Saunders Sr. and Elect Lady Mother Alberta B. Saunders. After experiencing a profound healing from chronic back pain during a retreat in 1986, Pastor Faulkner felt called to create a space where women could experience spiritual renewal and restoration. Drawing from her parents’ visionary leadership in Deeper Life Ministry, she launched the inaugural retreat at Sandy Cove Ministries & Conference Center in North East, Maryland, with a mission to empower and heal women spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

"Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies." (Proverbs 31:10)
