The Church of the Lukumi Babalu Aye (CLBA) is a historic religious institution that was founded in 1974 and is located in Hialeah, FL. It is the first of its kind in the United States and played a crucial role in obtaining legal recognition for the Yoruba religion, also known as Santeria or Regla de Ocha, which originated in Nigeria. With a multinational membership representing over thirty-five nationalities, CLBA preserves the Lukumi regional form of worship practiced in Cuba and serves as a centralized union of clergy members and adherents.
