Ile Oya Afefe Osa Meji Temple

Our Temple

Ile Oya Afefe Osa Meji Temple is located in Baltimore, MD. It was founded by me. 


This is a working ile that is very involved in doing spiritual work to uplift the community such as free healing sessions, feeding homeless, donating clothing and supplies to those in need and all other manner of community services.


Each member if the temple is required and has committed to learning and growing spiritually. 


In Ile Oya Afefe Osa Meji, we learn about honoring our ancestors and the Orisa, divination, how to make spiritual baths, prayers, songs, dances and rituals.  Members that have gone through initiation are taught the deeper mysteries of the religion.  


To become a member of this temple, you must have a divination/reading with me.
