Celebrating the Life & Legacy of Sister Gita - Yvonne Delores Brown

Sister Gita was a beacon of love, strength, and inspiration. She wasn’t an ordinary woman, but one who touched the lives of thousands, helping them feel better about themselves. From serving her famous jerk tofu to Oprah at the United Nations to cooking for the Bee Gees, the Jamaican Bobsled Team, saints, and leaders, Sister Gita’s culinary artistry was only surpassed by her ability to uplift the downtrodden and inspire others to shine.

Her journey was marked by resilience—orphaned after the tragic Kendall Train accident, she faced life’s challenges with grace and determination. She helped build the Brahma Kumaris Meditation Center in Silver Spring, MD, creating a sanctuary for peace and healing.

Together with her daughter and best friend, Sister Dr. Jenna, she built a thriving community that has saved lives and brought light to countless souls. Sister Gita’s legacy is a testament to love, courage, and service.

This tribute will honor Sister Gita’s legacy and celebrate her as one of Jamaica’s hidden treasures in the diaspora. Through her life, she showed the world the power of compassion and resilience. Let us gather to remember, reflect, and celebrate the indomitable spirit of a woman who continues to inspire us all.

Her life’s work will forever remind us to embrace our inner light and spread it to the world.

We look forward to welcoming you on May 3rd to honor and celebrate her remarkable journey.
