The United Supreme Council of Italy, reconstituted in Rome after the second world war in the Anno Vera Lucis 5948, has summoned urgently its Effective Members to vote on the resignation of the Grand Commander brother Angelo Marcello 33° for serious health reasons. The Sovereign Marcello 33° had already expressed, since long time, his desire to leave the important dignity, but his high sense of duty and his long membership in the Institution had postponed the decision. The Effective Members of the Supreme Council gathered in Rome, took note of the situation and have accepted, albeit reluctantly, the irrevocable resignation of their Grand Commander. The Board has unanimously elected the Brother Ernesto Pettinato33° as 9° Sovereign Grand Commander of the United Supreme Council of Italy and appointed Brother Angelo Marcello 33° Honorary Sovereign. The new Grand Commander has a Masonic seniority of over forty years, almost completely served in the historic Obedience of the Grand Orient of Italy-The new Grand Commander received greetings and felicitations from the Grand Master of the Serenissime Grand Lodge of Italy, brother Massimo Criscuoli Tortora, Obedience with whom the United Supreme Council of Italy maintains official relations of mutual recognition.
