UNION DAY - January 24, 2022 - The Sovereign Grand Commander of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Romania addressed a message to members of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Romania.

 

Bucharest, on January 24, 2022

My dear brother,

 

"I am your Brother, you are my Brother / in the two of us a soul beats!"
Verse from "Hora Unirii", text by Vasile Alecsandri, boyar, diplomat, poet
and Romanian mason

We, the Masons in Romania, have and honor a double celebration today.

Today is therefore Union Day. There is no small love and no great love, just as there is no small union and no great union. On January 24, 1859, the milestone of the birth of our country was laid, as we still have it today.

On January 24, 1859, some of the masons of Moldavia and Muntenia at that time contributed to the Union of the Principalities, on the way to becoming theirs and those of the future as masons of Romania. 163 years have passed since Cuza's Union. The formal union took place, at one point in history it was even completed and then chipped. The union in terms of moral, educational and functional seriousness is not over yet…

Romania has for 142 years had a regular and recognized Grand Lodge and for 141 years a Supreme Council of the Scottish Rite, regular and recognized, the Sovereign and Independent Masonic entities necessary for the existence of a modern State.

Thus, with the re-enactment of the Enlightenment, on January 24, 1993, some Masons of Romania who physically, morally and emotionally resisted persecution for over fifty years, chose to be this day and the Day of Union of the best ideals of the country expressed by Masonic principles. . They were joined, and continue to be joined, by the idealists, the fighters, but also the opportunists of such moments, as in our days.

Long live the Country to which I swore Faith, long live our love for Romania!

Let us, the Romanian Freemasons, live too, so that some of us may have the wisdom to know how to respect and defend it.

We are going with you, our Romania, right ahead!
Happy Birthday!

Stelian Nistor, 33º
