Uncle Bud and Aunt Hazel Kilbourne (son of OMS cofounder Ernest Kilbourne) made a survey trip to India after the OMS Board voted to enter the country in 1939. They were traveling overnight by train when the train made a routine stop. The Holy Spirit wakened Uncle Bud and impressed upon him that this was the location where OMS was to set up its first ministry.

Nanki’s response was that it might be the doctor’s opinion but God hadn’t told her yet that he was not going to answer her prayers.
