Auca Indians of Ecuador on visit to London

Nov. 11, 1966 - AMERICAN MISSIONARY, MISS RACHEL SAINT, HOLDS PRESS CONFERENCE IN LONDON. Ten years ago the world was shocked at the news of five missionaries being brutally murdered by the tribe of savage Auca Indians in the jungles of Ecuador. One of the missionaries killed was Nate Saint. Since that time peaceful contact has been made with the tribe by his sister, MISS RACHEL SAINT. Through her work a number of the Aucas have been introduced to Christianity. Miss Saint, an American missionary with Wycliffe Bible Translators, today held a Press Conference in the Music Room of St. Bride's Church, Fleet-street, London. Accompanying Miss Saint were two of the men directly involved in the killings - Kimo was one of the actual murderers of the missionaries and Komi is the son of the man who led the group of killers. Both are now dedicated Christians. Miss Saint and the two Auca Indians are passing through London on their way back to Ecuador after appearing with evangelist Billy Graham at the recent World Congress on Evangelism in Berlin. Mr. Graham has described Miss Saint as an amazing woman'.
