In February 2006 Pastor John Hagee decided the time had come to create a national grassroots movement focused on the support of Israel. He called upon Christian leaders from across America to join him in launching this new initiative. Over 400 leaders, each representing a denomination, mega-church, media ministry, publishing company, or Christian university answered the call and Christians United for Israel was born.
Legally incorporated on February 7, 2006, CUFI is focused on communicating the need to defend Israel, in light of their interpretation of the Bible.
CUFI and its July 2006 Summit was instrumental in the founding of Israel Allies Caucus in the United States Congress.
The first college chapter of Christians United for Israel has been established at California State University, Bakersfield. More "CUFI on Campus" chapters on college campuses are hoped to develop.
