Baylor Nursing School Alumni twins Cinda Adams Brooks (BSN, 1983) and Linda Adams Witte (BSN, 1982) have co–authored and published a book, Heartprints of Africa: A Family’s Story of Faith, Love, Adventure, and Turmoil (Ant Press, 2015), available now on Amazon. When Cinda visits her identical twin Linda and her family at her home on the mission field in Northern Uganda, little did they know they would soon be running for their lives. How did a relaxing vacation result in a terrifying escape from artillery and automatic gunfire? The answer begins four decades earlier when their parents and family of seven leave everything familiar in America to start lie as medical missionaries in rural East Africa. Three generations of a family’s love, forged by shared faith, struggles, and triumphs, serve them now as they fight for survival. Heartprints of Africa is a real story of God’s love, provision, and protection.
After a rich missionary career in Africa, Linda now works as a
SANE nurse in San Antonio. Cinda combined nursing with law enforcement for a rich career teaching health, fitness, and survival at the Texas Game Warden Academy.
