Church of Lukumi Babalu Aye (CLBA) is a Santería church in Hialeah, Florida.
CLBA was founded and incorporated in 1974 by Oba Ernesto Pichardo and his associates. In the 1980s, the church decided to begin public services in Hialeah. The city of Hialeah responded by passing four ordinances which outlawed animal sacrifice. The dispute between the church and Hialeah went to the United States Supreme Court and was resolved in CLBA's favor.
