Answer:

Santeria.

Step-by-step explanation:

Santeria is an old African diasporic religion that centers in between the Yoruba religion of Africa and Roman Catholicism. Originated from Cuba, the religion consists of the belief or worship of a mortal spirit called Orisha, who is the manifestation of Olodumare (God).

The followers of this belief or faith worship or direct their prayers to orishas, spirits that are similar to saints. It is their belief that these spirits will help them in their life if they worship them, making it a dependent, mutual relationship between the believers and the spirit.
