Rev. Abigail Schairer

Rev. Abigail Schairer is a vibrant visionary, dynamic speaker, and compassionate spiritual leader who has been inspiring and empowering individuals since walking into her first Center for Spiritual Living in 2000. Her mission is to awaken people to their own spiritual magnificence and help them live lives of absolute joy, abundance, and freedom.

In 2007, Rev. Abigail founded the popular SisterSpirit Women’s Retreat with the first retreat in 2008. SisterSpirit is a transformative annual event that empowers people who identify as women to live authentically, embracing their love, creativity, and spirituality to heal themselves and the world. This year, she is honored to be the featured speaker for the 2025 retreat, bringing her profound insights and nurturing presence to this beloved gathering.

Rev. Abigail's academic journey includes a Master’s degree and a ministerial license from the Holmes Institute of Consciousness Studies, which she earned in 2011. The following year, she founded the Center for Spiritual Living, Peninsula, further expanding her reach and impact.

Dedicated to nurturing future leaders, Rev. Abigail created the NextGEN Retreat in 2017, a unique experience for spiritual adults aged 18-35. This retreat focuses on social engagement, healthy relationships, leadership skills, and fostering a sustainable future of prosperity, service, and love. Her impactful work with emerging leaders earned her the global Youth Champion award from the Centers for Spiritual Living. A couple of years ago, she passed the mantle of that retreat to current NextGEN aged leaders. 

Rev. Abigail's influence extends beyond retreats and centers. She was featured on the cover of the August 2018 issue of Science of Mind Magazine, where she shared her insights and inspirations drawn from the great spiritual masters of all religions. Her teachings seamlessly blend practical guidance with profound spiritual wisdom.
