History

It was established by Henri Roy in 1939 in Manchester, New Hampshire.[1] A secular institute is an organization of individuals who are consecrated persons (professing the evangelical counsels of chastity, poverty and obedience) and live in the world, unlike members of a religious institute, who live in community.

gollark: It's kind of a shame that `let` doesn't do immutability; I think it sounds nicer.
gollark: Yes, you should use async/await, or else.
