Regent’s Address After Fourth Dai Congress

Yesterday, the Dai People have spoken and agreement has been reached between the People and their Leadership upon the path forward!

It has most definitely been a wild ride this year from political upheavals, attacks and security concerns against us, and economic woes that have befallen ourselves and our country. These unexpected twists and turns have also caused us to abandon the direction we were following in Colorado even concerning how we intended to structure our governance in light of new information not previously known, but with this now all on the table our path forward is now apparent. My personal thanks to all of you for speaking with us and voicing your concerns, your needs, and even your proposals for solutions!

As your Regent it is my duty to voice the direction, but it is our mutual duty to fulfill it going forward. Thus, without further ado I put forth this Order:

I hereby put forth both the Order of Valkyrie and the Order of Dragoon. It shall be carried out by the organization of a Texas security patrol corporation comprised of Pagonis security officers to be dubbed “Valkyrie Security Force, Ltd.” All security officers will be background checked, trained, and licensed up to the Texas Level 3 Commissioned Security Officer Licensure for security service. Security officers will be equipped with minimum Level II body armor, 40 S&W service pistols, and 12-gauge shotguns in due course of their service. As the People have requested, we will reach out to Mr. Johnathan Waddell as your nominated Captain and potential president over the security company. If he accepts, he will be installed, but if he rejects, we will open the position for other Pagonis candidates.

In addition to this, Pagonis is called upon to organize and to defend themselves and their Hebrew cousins from Aryan threats from the East. Therefore, our experts highly recommend that our populations in West Texas adopt the FN 5.7 pistol, AR-15 rifles, Level III body armor and service shields as well as refresher courses in firearms and self-defense training for all. Surveillance of believed threats should be instituted and if credible imminent threats are discovered they must be submitted to law enforcement.

While Pagonis conducts the operations in Texas, despite threats against us for doing so from the East, the Dei Corps disaster response force is ordered to be reorganized, resurrected, and put back into service in New Mexico! We will begin as a small variety of CERT teams across the state and branch these out into Arizona and Colorado to build resources and competency before upgrading into a full-on, VOAD-level state disaster force. Initial teams are to be organized and operated in Ruidoso and Silver City.

Concerning the Kingdom of Dai itself, though we had pursued the idea of an economic development corporation to house and direct our economic endeavors for our future economy in Colorado, the new status of the economy there and the discovery of the 501(d) format of nonprofit operations that allows for us to conduct business in this manner in the Gilas simply fits our needs better than the previous option in Colorado.

Thus, we shall pursue this direction for the future. All our for-profit business concepts and business operations will now be operated under this umbrella to be founded as “Kibbutz Dai Colony, Inc.” as a 501(d) organization alongside a 501(c)3 church. Expeditions are still ongoing in the Gilas now focusing on Arizona, but a suitable community property has been located nearby Glenwood in New Mexico. Pledges of financial support as well as donations of metals such as copper, aluminum, bronze, brass, silver, and even gold are requested for the metal working and casting operations of the kibbutz. Once the nonprofit corporation is founded we will commence operations that will build the kibbutz.

This is the Order that I put forth… May this direction prevail for us all!

Rescheduled- Fourth Dai People’s Congress (9-22-2024)

September 22th @ 4pm CST (subject to change) the Rex Dai Cour hosts a meeting of the Dai Congress at the 69th Street Bar in North Odessa, Texas!
With a variety of unexpected events and changes over the course of 2024 so far his Regency determined it necessary to convene such a meeting of the Dai people themselves upon what would have been a regular Dai Council meeting.
As of this time the remaining Council consists of the Rex & Baron Farley and additional input is necessary for proper and fair governance of our people and our mutual affairs. This agenda below will change as input from the people add and adjust items upon it, but below is the agenda at hand:
A. Rex will convene meeting and take an accounting of all present and all that are missing from the expected rolls. It is expected that the Rex may order a full census of the people as of this time.
B. Rex will request an update from the People concerning various security concerns believed ongoing in Odessa as well as West Texas and in Silver City as well as the Gilas and will address police forces’ reports of attacks. Upon this update an order will be given to formally address these security concerns.
C. Rex will request an update on any expeditions to the Gilas for the project dubbed “Kibbutz Dai Colony.” Afterwards the Rex will introduce and explain to the people the Section 501(d) nonprofit status and how this could be applied to “Kibbutz Dai Colony.” An order moving forward will be issued after this has been fully discussed.
D. Rex will discuss the resurrection of the “Dei Corps” as the Dai Corps of the Gilas and whether it would be a New Mexico entity or an Arizona entity. This will serve as a security force as well as a disaster response force in light of attacks reported earlier this year out of West Texas.
E. Rex will take an assessment from the people of the state of the current economy and the current economic plan that was meant to be in place to prepare and lay down the economic foundation of our kibbutz. Necessary adjustments are expected.
F. Businesses from the DCEDC plan that the People wish to operate under the Kibbutz.
G. Recent threats made from Aryan and Gowan sources out of Alexandria, Louisiana threatening “total war” against the entire “messianic establishment.”
H. Any other business to be discussed by the People.

Revocation of the DCEDC and Returning to the KoD

To the Dai People & the Public:

It is my duty to inform to you all that the effort to reorganize the “Kingdom of Dai” from an unincorporated nonprofit organization into a proper nonprofit corporation under the 501(c)(6) tax-exempt status has failed and the Corporation that was created to house the Dai Council and our efforts to further the Dai Economy in Colorado has been voluntarily revoked by the Council through the Colorado Secretary of State.

Shortly after the incorporation of the “Dai Colony Economic Development Corporation,” the Council discovered via attempting to draft the Form 1024 of a potential better format under the previously unknown 501(d) tax exempt status for religious communities that could potentially fit the long-term goal of Dai Colony than the 501(c)(6) status previously sought. This caused the remaining Dai Council members to bitterly debate between them and at the end of the debate all remaining Colorado Council members resigned and wanted to inform the Dai public that any further Dai projects in Colorado will be opposed and expressed their desire that further pursuit of any projects should be done in New Mexico or Arizona where the cost of living is much more affordable for a people that “does not nor ever will never have any money.” Upon them taking this stance against the People I myself have decided to accept their advice, now the sole member of the Dai Council enacting a “Defacto regency,” and ordered that the Gilas of New Mexico & Arizona be reexplored for a better place to place our project, as the Gilas was the original intended location for Dai Colony.

We have discovered so far that the cost of rent and real estate has significantly lower over the past couple years since we were last there, though the reason has yet to be determined, and a large plot of land equipped with an airport just due east of Glenwood, NM a few miles off NM State Route 159 has been found and would be potentially suitable for the purpose of founding a small community thereupon. This is now being investigated and vetted for such this purpose. As the 501(d) tax-exempt status is being studied interesting revelations are coming to light of how such a community would operate, and I now agree with others that this format of nonprofit organization better fits the intended structure and purpose of our community. Below is a link to the IRS concerning the 501(d) status for your review and opinion:

Publication 5627 (Rev. 2-2024) (irs.gov)

As I am now the only remaining Dai Council member on the Council after the debacles of this year, I intend to call a public meeting of the People yourselves concerning the future of our community as well as ourselves as the People… the time, date, and place of which I have yet to determine but will announce when I have determined. Suggestions concerning this will be welcomed. The goal now would be to found and operate a nonprofit corporation to be named “Kibbutz Dai Colony, Inc.” under the state laws of New Mexico and/or Arizona and Federally under Section 501(d) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under 501(d) the corporation must be religious in nature, must have members (similar to a credit union), must have a common treasury (bank account or Trust arrangement), and unlike other nonprofits business activities (I’m advocating for greenhouse agriculture and real estate development to start with). Other economic realities to set additional rules are present but not yet set in stone. We all should discuss this at the public meeting. I will be in touch with everyone at a later time. Shalom to you all!

The Regent’s Address Upon 2nd Quarter Meeting 2024

The Regent of the Kingdom of Dai to our populations within Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas:

Yesterday the Dai Council met in Delta, CO to discuss the state of current affairs within our world and to examine the progress of our endeavors of the year thus far. We express that we are mildly disappointed with the lack of progress compared to what we were expecting. The planned location in Pagosa Springs for incorporation was lost before we could move to secure it though a new location in Delta is currently being examined, no further development on the flag other than its authorization has occurred, the Shiloh project has been put on hold indefinitely due to its leadership resigning abruptly, no housing trustee(s) or trade masters have been recruited despite its authorization, and no local security or CERT teams for local disasters have been organized by the Barons despite being issued the order to do so.

Now as it seems to make these matters worse, we are battling the former commander and his criminal operatives of the former Texas disaster response force after we were suddenly and deliberately attacked shortly after his fraudulent, criminal activities within his organization were discovered, reported, and investigations began by state authorities. Reports of attacks ranging from armed attempted home invasions to drive-by arson strikes throughout West Texas continue to come into the Council- insinuating defeats of our Barons’ attempts to defend their citizens and even defeats by local police authorities who have failed to successfully engage and arrest these criminals. Morale is at an all-time low as reported by our knights trying to hold the line against this criminal outfit hellbent on revenge. Many of our people have come forward asking: What can be done? How can we and our families be safe when those responsible for protecting us and their families are being defeated before their eyes? There are no easy answers for these questions, but it is absolutely clear that help is surely needed to turn this black tide around!

Therefore as opportunities for heroism and valor clearly stand abound for patriot heroes ready to rise and defend their fellow citizens: The order is given to all that can to come forward to join and stand with their Barons and police forces in Texas to turn this situation around so that justice shall prevail! Defend your homes and your families! Be conscience of the system- collect and provide the evidence local police need to prosecute and convict these criminals! And the time has come for investigators to go forth in pursuit into where the criminals reside! Only when the perpetrators are brought to justice will order, peace, and security be restored!

Meanwhile, while all this is ongoing within West Texas, the Council and Colorado members of the Dai will continue to work on what is needed here. New councilors are needed to be nominated and authorized to join our Council, our Colorado disaster response force is currently being organized for future action, to be followed by the New Mexico force, and a proposal to divide the Shiloh project into two organizations for two separate efforts- the original 501c3 to focus on matters of faith and a new 501c4 social welfare organization to focus specifically to providing shelter and provision for our needy on Shiloh’s grounds- has been approved and in need of new directors.

Colorado businesses operating under our membership despite the chaotic environment have reported gains and improvements. We reach out for more new member companies to join us in the Western Slope! The Council has also authorized the launch and focus on two of our core business concepts over the next quarter- Regency General Mercantile with a farmer’s market theme to its offerings and Dai Corps Disaster Supply to provide for the needs of our disaster responders and for disaster preparedness supplies for our general population. In light of these positive aspects ongoing in Colorado the Council chose to raise the business revenue value of the Dai Troy to $25 per Troy, up from $22.50 as previously set, yet it decided against raising rent controls as set forth within the agenda for 3-bedroom residential properties as of this time. The mint in Utah continues in its offer to us that they will still stamp and mint our silver and gold currency rounds for $30,000 for 1,000T amounts of coinage for anyone interested. Please contact the Council through the Regent if interested in purchasing minting run through the mint.

As a final note to close this address, though the RT-11 forms and their contribution payments are technically due at the end of this month, April, as US tax season comes to a close, the Council has decided it best not to press collections of these required contributions until the chaotic situation in Texas comes more to a calm and the Council finally incorporates itself. However, for those who are willing to come forward and freely provide the contribution of their dues before this time, the Council will accept it from your hands with grateful thanksgiving- it is surely needed to advance the Kingdom!

May our God be with us, defend us, protect us, and provide us victory, justice, and mercy in the midst of injustice… may he continue to provide for and prosper us in these trying times!

-Regent Benjamin the III

2nd Quarter Dai Council Meeting (4-7-2024)

To the Directors of the DCEDC, the Dai Council Councilors, and the general Dai public:

April 7th, 2024 @ 2:00 PM MST/ 3:00PM CST, the Dai Council is scheduled to host its 2nd Quarter meeting for 2024 at the Rise & Shine Fuel Coffee Shop located at 520 Hwy 92 in Delta, CO.

This posting serves as the electronic notification for the Directors/Councilors of the meeting. This is the current agenda subject to continuous revisions:

A. Reviewing and approving the minutes from the previous meeting and discussing accomplishments and areas of improvement needed according to those minutes.

B. Formally recognize any new counselors to this Council and recognizing the dismissal or resignation of any by the Council itself or from the member organizations and individuals that represent those organizations. Nominations for addition Barons are to be discussed and voted upon as this new age of Barons continues. Nominations and appointments of Trade Masters and Housing Trust Trustees.

C. Continued discussion upon which location the DCEDC will locate its HQ for the Trade Associations and the Housing Trust to begin preparing our younger generation for their career life needed to support themselves and their future families. San Luis Valley of Colorado eliminated from further consideration. Refocus upon Montrose-Delta & Cortez-Mancos areas. Nucla/Naturita/Norwood area to serve as bridgeway communities.

D. Progress of the operational stati of the Dai Corps of New Mexico and of Colorado disaster response forces. The Texas force has been dissolved due to fraud discovered under the former commander. Discussion of progress of Texas authorities’ investigations of the former commander and his personal force with security incidents reported. Proposal to rename the Dai Corps to its previous generation’s name “Dei Corps” if permissed by Council. The lift of the ban on rifle calibers for the remaining forces continues as well as for Barons’ security and CERT teams.

E. Renewed discussion of incorporating Dai Institute of Shiloh Inc and finding new directors to lead the organization after the stepping down of its sole director Jerod Batte. New proposal of organizing a second ministry for the grounds alongside the Institute called Dai Mission of Shiloh with a mission focus of caring for less fortunate and providing shelter, provision, chaplaincy-based counseling, and the like on the grounds of the Institute as a 501(c)(4) type of organization.

F. Current member organizations are to report to the Council the current state of development of their organizations and their development, including successes and failures and what they plan to do to address them.

G. Discussion of the need of adding future membership outside of the core Dai and Regency businesses and organizations represented. New blood to help guide the Council is needed into the future.

Regency Mint of Orem UT suggests this we adopt this regime to resale Troy at $30 retail and purchase wholesale at $27.50. All runs at the mint close at about $30,000 per new run of bullion including cost of dies. Suggests that Regency Metals and Mining explore smelting and selling of nonprecious metals as well to develop wider customer base into industrial needs.

K. RTBS expresses desire to increase fee discount to 20% if Dai Troy Value does increase causing its fees to increase to counter balance effect of increase. Seeks Council’s blessing and approval to increase fees and discounts.

L. Suggestion to find investors to found and run both the Regency General Mercantile and Dei Corps Disaster Supply stores to prepare area for coming futures.

M. Any other business to be proposed and discussed.

Adjournment of meeting.

The Regent’s Address Upon 1st Quarter Meeting of 2024

Yesterday the Dai Council met concerning the upcoming year and said goodbye to many members of this Council amid the surfacing of a variety of new issues over the turning of the year.

First we said goodbye to those who have served this Council well in the past year, leaving us three new seats open on the Council. Next, the discovery of issues with our own disaster response force in Texas. Post our meeting the Commander resigned amid these irregularities discovered in his disaster response organization, and now the Dai Corps of Texas is in the process of being disbanded and dissolved. These losses were unexpected, staggering, and leave our people and operations within Texas in a weakened, vulnerable position. Events ongoing upon the border and wars starting across the world in addition to this add to the feeling of vulnerability many have begun to express. Thus the path forward begins to become clear of what needs to be done. It is time to prepare and strengthen ourselves for the immediate future ahead. As one of our Councilors so blunted stated, “We’re already in a Third World War… It’s time for everyone to act like it.”

Thus, in a time such as this, the Council has decided now is time to incorporate itself and place its HQ (the “Throne Room”) in Pagosa Springs, CO. There it can begin taking in resources from economic grants, goodwill donations from outside donors, and contributions from its members to fund various economic grants to business startups, trade education, disaster response teams, and community security services. A crude but functional starting budget to allocate these resources has been developed and put into effect. A newly designed flag to represent the strength of this corporate maneuver has also been adopted going forward… perfection of the final design is currently underway. Work upon organizing the trade associations and the Housing Trust continues with focus upon the Delta, Cortez, and Monte Vista areas for both affordable housing and education for our younger generation. Finding new leadership to continue the development of Shiloh, the community as well as the Institute thereof, will still be a priority. Further development of our disaster response capabilities continues. The Council has authorized the Barons to form and operate CERT teams for their communities, issued a direction to our New Mexico populations, and with the loss of the Texas disaster response force the Council has directed me with the “go-ahead” to dust off my old Commander’s uniform to incorporate, found, and personally lead the Dai Corps of Colorado, Inc. The need for courageous capable men and women of integrity are hereby emphasized, and such men and women are to report to me for duty immediately- Time is of the essence and short for training and preparation for the mission at hand.

In closing of my address, more companies are needed to come forward and join our membership in order to support the economic mission of the Kingdom of Dai. There is heavy emphasis upon food production and distribution, housing development and refurbishing, accounting and financial services, energy production, mechanical and machining, mining and materials, precious metals, and local manufacturing. There is wealth to be created and money to be made! It’s just a matter of getting to work and supplying the demand…

– Regent Benjamin III

THE REGENT’S ADDRESS TO THE NEXT GREATEST GENERATION

The Regent of the Kingdom of Dai to our beloved sons and daughters of the upcoming next greatest generation:

The years have arrived for you my sons and daughters to begin venturing out and establishing your place in the community and the world to come. As you do I provide this good and loving instruction to you to prosper you and guide you so you may avoid the traps and pitfalls that myself, your fathers, and your mothers encountered and were ensnared by while we were young.

Hear me my sons and daughters.

As you go out into the world and begin your careers in this economy know that the money you receive for your labors is not the same money we received years ago when we were young. Over the years it has lost considerable value and will continue to do so as you progress into your destinies. Nonetheless for what value that remains- use it, save it, invest it. Keep your money local until the time comes to move it. Find a good credit union who will not abuse you for your finances. When your time comes to venture out from your hometowns into the surrounding areas and beyond look into larger regional banks that can serve your needs in the areas where your foot trends and maintain access to what you have built up for yourselves.

Right now interest rates are high compared to times earlier- take advantage of this. Invest in Certificates of Deposits offered by your local credit unions and banks and from these begin to build your credit by taking small loans against these and quickly repaying them to prove your worth. After this they will offer you credit cards but beware and know that credit cards had their beginning as “charge cards” which had to be repaid at the end of thirty days. Holders of these “charge cards” began to have difficulty repaying them by the month’s end later on and “credit cards” emerged as a means to help charge card holders spread out debt repayment originally. Though this helped at first they also plunged the less financially disciplined further into debts that no one could repay, thus, they became enslaved to them and the banks that serviced them- do not do this. Remember where credit cards came from and for what purpose they were originally designed- charge cards. Do not allow them to give you more of a “credit limit” than your monthly salaries less you become entrapped by the trap of debt to lure you into servitude. Instead use credit union and bank loans to finance bigger ticket items such as cars, trucks, land, and houses that would be difficult to afford in the beginning since possessing the cash upfront will be difficult to save. Do not tolerate debt for long. Use it sparingly, tactically, and pay it off as quickly as possible as you are able. Whatever you buy and possess- ensure you have good title for it all.

The time will come for you to begin to invest beyond your original Certificates of Deposits in which you began this area of your lives. While interest rates are high move into “Bonds,” government and corporate, which pay you interest for the money lent and bonded to them- eventually interest rates will fall. At that time dispose of them as you are able and invest in other available avenues. Precious metals such as silver and gold serve as a better store of your wealth than cash in the bank. Physically hold these and put them in a protected place such as a bank’s safety deposit box. Begin investing within small local companies and inexpensive rental properties first that could provide local streams of cash to supplement your labors. When you feel it is opportune small investments with larger companies may be well but beware and know in advance that not all of your investments will hold their value. If you become an expert in your area of work experience explore entrepreneurship- seek expert guidance here. Do these things, spread out what you invest to spread out the risk associated with investment, business enterprise success and failure, and the ever-changing economy and you should be sufficiently protected long-term.

Remember to care and invest in yourselves and each other. If one of your brothers and sisters of your generation is ailing or falls upon misfortune do not let them suffer and become lost and desperate. Come to their aid, help them regain their footing, and stand them onto their feet. Thus, in the days if you may falter and fall they help you in return and your Father in Heaven who witnesses bless you even the more. In the beginning take up a trade or two that later in life could become your favorite hobbies. From this pursue formal education and develop your professional and academic intellect. Pursue and develop wisdom so that in the day you become wise you may educate others. Monitor and protect your health- physically, mentally, emotionally, and especially spiritually. Use alcohol and medicines sparingly- both are poisons in large amounts. Seek to keep a pure mind and clarity of thought- do not fall into madness. Guard your heart within you and choose to love rather than hate- when you are hurt give yourself time to heal. Remember that the Father is above in the Heavens who watches over you and offers you His love- pray always and study His Word as it was written. He is Spirit thus pray to Him in spirit- you will be heard and He will answer you. For in a time soon in the world to come He will reign and the world which we live in and even ourselves were created by Him- look to the ways He operates in the world.

When we, myself and your parents, were young the world we entered was full of violence and forces greater than us pit us against each other in horrendous wars- those of you who are of the older remember this but those of you who are the younger have only heard of it. Though those days have come to their immediate end, in this brief period of peace we your fathers and mothers fear that even greater wars prophesied are on the horizon and that these same forces will come for you. We prepare a place of retreat for you and later ourselves to escape and save you and us alive when those days arrive as we were instructed to do in such as time as this to run to the mountains in times of trouble. Nonetheless I know some of you who carry your parents’ bloodline will choose to leave and fight- thus become masters of the martial and military arts. When you win your wars come home to us- let us minister to you and ease you into peace as we had to do in our days.

The work of your fathers and your mothers, myself, the Regency, the Council, the Barons, the Associations, the Corps, and the Ministries continues on your behalf to guide you and prosper you in loving care that you live well, succeed, and surpass us in health, wealth, wisdom, and glory.

My sons:

“May the LORD make you like Ephraim and Manasseh, who received the blessing from their grandfather, Jacob, and who led lives honoring to Him. May He also make you like Andrew and Peter, the first brothers to leave all behind and follow Yeshua as the promised Messiah.”

My daughters:

“May the Lord make you like Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, and Leah, who were women of faith who endured hardship, showed courage, loved their husbands, and were loyal to the LORD. May He also make you like Priscilla, an able teacher of His Word, and like Mary and Johanna who ministered to Yeshua.”

May you trust the LORD all the days of your life and be ready for Him to use you in great ways even now.

“The LORD bless you and keep you.”

“The LORD make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you.”

Baron Farley’s Address to Midland-Odessa

Today, the 9th of November, 2023, I, JB Dylan Farley, offer my sword ‘Euangelion’ the good news, and accept the nobility title of ‘Baron of Odessa.’

I hereby proclaim that I willingly and willfully seek to establish a strong branch of the Dai Corps in West Texas. I want to bring strong elements of veterans and trade masters of several trade skills and logistics from my home of thirty-nine years to the ranks and fellowship that the Dai stand for. The world is everchanging world, and only by gathering together, following a righteous life, and teaching our skills to the coming generation can we as a people overcome the trials of this world.

I proclaim as of this day that I will seek with all the power that I have to uphold the responsibilities of my title and to further the Dai Corps into a new age.

-Baron J.B. Farley

(Upon this address Baron Farley takes his seat and the Regent stands.)

“As you have said thus do. Build a Gideon-class force of the Dai Corps and teach the younger generation basic skills of safety and community service to the area and when they are ready may they step up to future disaster training in Austin and in Ruidoso. Find trade masters over their trades to assemble the trade associations for the area so apprentices may be trained for the future. May we indeed unite together and overcome the trials of this world.”

“I present to you J.B. Dylan Farley, Baron of Odessa and surrounding vicinities!” – Regent Benjamin the III

The Regent’s Address After Dai Council’s 4th Quarter Meeting

Earlier this week the Dai Council met and discussed the direction the Kingdom of Dai will follow and decided where it will headquarter itself along with our nonprofit members and associated business partners that have join alongside us to build our community, economy, and the future of the Dai… it has formally chosen “the West End,” which is the western part of Montrose County and the northern part of San Miguel County, to concentrate our efforts in building our future! Though the San Luis Valley as well as our other populations in the cities and townships along U.S. 160, the Uncompahgre Valley, the Gunnison Valley, and the Trinidad area will still be important in our future in Colorado and later the Four Corners, we will focus most of our immediate efforts in the Nucla, Naturita, Redvale, and Norwood communities.

For the city of Odessa within our populations within West Texas the Dai Council announces the approval of this generation’s first Baron to be knighted and set over the city! Baron Farley with his experience fighting for our people in previous generations, a very security-conscious personality, and his contacts within the oil and oilfield services industry is the perfect choice to not only establish a protected basis of economic security for Odessa but is a true representative of the people who understands their personal needs. His formal knighting ceremony is being arranged and will be announced when officially determined.

In addition to these developments, the Dai Council unanimously approved the 2024 Revised Decree Orders with a couple minor edits to the language that govern our economic operations as well as our people. With that approval we are now in agreement and ready to proceed forward. We begin the process of seeking out masters and experienced journeymen of the various trades we support to organize the trade associations to begin recruiting, training, and graduating apprentices in the various trades. The Dai Institute of Shiloh has begun drawing up plans for its future campus and its ministry curriculum within the West End, the Dai Corps of both New Mexico and Colorado continue to advance its organizing plans for disaster response, agricultural and gold mining operations have been authorized and set in motion to move forward in the West End, and the Kingdom of Dai now seeks new business members as well as individuals to join our membership and take their place upon the Council. We invite you to join us and help us in advancing the Kingdom for not just ourselves but our children and our future grandchildren as well. Please contact us for details!

Many new openings in the Dai economy and its Council are been created as we speak… the time to get involved has arrived and we will need your participation to move forward. The Lord bless us and keep us; the Lord make his face shine upon us and be gracious to us; the Lord turn his face towards us and give us peace.
