Rev. Eugene L. Watrin

I had the distinct pleasure of inviting Father Watrin to dinner in 1980 at Kathmandu. I knew very little about him, I learned after the fact of his many accomplishments. Even so during this dinner I sensed something special about him.

We are hardly running Social Action Volunteers(SAV) activities at Kanti Children's Hospital since 1988 to till this date. Fr watrin and me we dad been started a small unitof social work at the hospital, which is only one children hospital in nepal and many underprivileged sick patients are getting various services by us.It would be better if I could receive the contact emailof his sr helen khole.

Amazing to see the sacrifice these Americans...

He put me in touch with a WHO Nurse, who arranged my visit to a local hospital and he took me to the Jesuit schools where I met Fr. Moran. I in return invited Father and Nurse Smith (also from Dayton, Ohio) to dinner at my...

Hello.

I had the pleasure of meeting Fr. Watrin during his last trip to Cincinnati, Ohio.

I am currently creating a series of paintings of Fr. Watrin's work and ministry in Nepal and I am looking for photo references upon which I can base my paintings.

These words are surely the best that i can get in for the...
