Sorry, our "Finding location" status message could be a little more clear: it starts out trying to find your location, but once that's done it proceeds to try to figure out the location of each of your contexts so it can determine which ones are nearby.
If some of your contexts are using business searches, OmniFocus has to go ask the Internet which businesses are nearby. This usually takes no time at all over a fast, reliable network connection—but if the network is slow or unresponsive (not uncommon with a mobile phone) this process could take a minute or more before OmniFocus finally gives up waiting.
We'll look at fixing this for a future release. At a minimum, we should let you know that we're trying to find the locations of your contexts rather than of your phone—but ideally, if we don't have results within a few seconds, we would display whatever we have and just update the list as new results come back from the network.
I've filed this as <bug://bugs/50214> (Nearby Contexts list gets stuck at "Finding Location" when business searches fail); thanks for bringing it to our attention!
