Meet the Ghanaian SVD Priest making artificial legs, arms for amputated patients

His life took a shift from the routine of a regular priest after his superiors suggested to him to take up a challenge to study Prosthetics and Orthotics.
For three good years, Rev. Fr. Eugene Asante, SVD, took on what could be described as a mission that extends beyond traditional priesthood duties studying how to craft arms and legs for amputated persons at the Brother Tarcisius Prosthetics and Orthotics Training College in Nsawam.
"I found myself in this field because this institution was started by an SVD brother called Brother Tarcisius de Ruyter," Fr. Eugene explains. "After him, there has been no SVD who has been able to continue what he started, so it was suggested to me by my superiors that if I have the interest, I should also come and study so that I'll find myself in this institution," He told Catholic Trends.

My husband has a prosthetic leg, so I am familiar with how important what you are doing is. Thank you for making it possible for amputees to walk! God bless you
