As always, it was good to be in the meeting with you all. I have sent our brother Nelson the three areas of the bylaws that need correction.

I want to thank you again for the opportunity to lead—even as I am still growing into this role. Your patience and dedication to Caney are invaluable. I hope to make time to discuss with each your goals, developments and motivation with Caney. As the Caney's heart is Miguel and we are the vibrations within the hearts chambers. ( My nursing degree hard at work)

What truly brings me comfort is our shared vision for Caney—a vision rooted in what Miguel and many of you have championed for our people, our tribes, and our villages, both Taino and non-Taino.

The Caney has filled many gaps in my own journey, becoming a space where I have found purpose through connection to the natural elements and the greater service of our collective spirit and intelligence. My hope is to see the Caney continue to be a sanctuary where others can also discover their purpose, walk the path of service, and deepen their connection to one another and to our ancestors.

From our Taino history, to service work, to spiritual substance—the Caney offers a wealth of teachings and breathtaking research into the sacred wisdom gifted to us by our ancestors. Our teaching program, while still growing, remains rooted in the importance of indigenous education and adapting it to our modern society without losing its heart.

This program is offered at no cost, for our indigeneity is not for sale. We serve Spirit, dance alongside our people, and share from the fullness of our harvest.

Many of us who are descendants, know of the prophecy and or vision that we shall return—but the truth, as our elders have always reminded us, is that we have never left.

I am deeply honored to walk this path with all of you. May our work continue to strengthen Caney’s sacred purpose and carry our people’s spirit forward. My first call to action is to complete the Mission, Purpose and Vision Statements of Caney. I plan to work with Miguel on these and bring to the next Board Meeting. 

Looking forward to an exciting year and working with each one of you. Please reach out at anytime. 412-326-5104.

Takaji Mt Relatives....Fellow board members

I want to thank all of the members who attended our meeting on Sunday Feb 21 2016. I feel it was a great meeting and a lot of important work was accomplished. I congratulate our Council of Nitainos for its commitment and dedication to Taino spiritual tradition as demonstrated during this meeting.

Please click on this LINK to access a PDF copy of the minutes of the meeting as submitted by our secretary Leni Sague, who although absent from the meeting itself did type it out for your inspection.

Let's have another wonderful year!

Takaji My Relatives....Fellow board members Please note that the annual meeting of the COUNCIL OF NITAINOS of the Caney Circle is scheduled for this Sunday February 21 at 4:00 pm. I will soon be making a decision on whether to schedule it as a regular conference call, in which case I will be providing you with a telephone number that you can use to connect with the rest of us this sunday, or whether to use some other communication vehicle. I will be sending each one of you a copy of the minutes of last year's meeting and a copy of my annual report as chief behike of the circle. There are new exciting developments due to be discussed at this year's meeting so I am looking forward to chatting with all of you this coming Sunday. Seneko Kakona

Comment by Miguel Sague Jr on February 6, 2016 at 6:46pm

Takaji My Relatives....It is February again and a year has passed since the last meeting of the Council Of Nitainos of the M.E.C.G. Caney Indigenous Spiritual Circle. It is time to schedule this year's meeting. Please submit to me as soon as you can your preferred date from the ones listed bellow so that we can schedule our next meeting. I will soon be sending you the minutes of last year's meeting along with a full Behike Bo report which documents the activities of the Caney Circle since our last meeting. If you have been following our blog posts you pretty much have an idea already of what this document will contain but it is important that I submit it to you formally anyway. There will also be a brief financial report which will include the fact that we were successful in opening an new Caney Circle bank account. I am planning a meeting with our brother and fellow board member Chris Cibaboinael Hansen who will guide me through the difficult details of bookkeeping using Excel spreadsheet program to maintain accurate records of our Circle finances. We currently have at our disposal an excellent Excel template specifically designed for small churches which I downloaded for free from an awesome religious organization website operator. I plan to keep you all updated on those processes. Seneko Kakona Miguel
