February 12, 2023 – Creating a Harmonious Life
Guest Speaker: Dimitry Doronkin
Dmitri Doronkin shares his personal journey with tithing, describing it as an ancient spiritual ritual that harmonizes your life through energy exchange. Drawing from eight years of experience at Unity of Walnut Creek, Dmitri Doronkin offers candid stories - including experiments with giving more, less, and nothing at all - to illustrate how dedicating 10% of income to your place of spiritual nourishment creates a two-lane road between you and the divine. He emphasizes that tithing is not about supporting a community but about becoming the primary beneficiary of a powerful spiritual practice that brings harmony and flow into your life.

September 18, 2022 – Stories of Triumph & Realized Dreams (Part 2 of 2)
Rev. Kristin Powell with Edna Castillo & Dimitry Doronkin
Rev. Kristin presents the second week of "Stories of Triumph," featuring two powerful immigrant stories from Unity of Walnut Creek community members. Edna Castillo shares her journey from Guatemala - overcoming her father's chauvinism, bullying, and an unhappy marriage to become a certified life coach and author who now helps others heal. Dimitri Doronkin recounts his path from Uzbekistan, navigating the struggles of starting over and losing everything, only to discover that God was not distant but intimately present within him. Rev. Kristin celebrates how these stories reveal the spiritual ideals of inclusivity and equality, reminding us that diversity strengthens community.
