CJUI-Vision
and Mission
"To
grow a multi-denominational,
grass-roots constituency of people who will provide factual information
about
Israel and its people to the community"
Christians and Jews United for Israel was
formed in Massachusetts in 2006. Its members, officers, steering
committee and advisory board include many prominent Christian and Jewish
community leaders, activists and clergy who are concerned about Israel’s security,
welfare, future and treatment by the media.
CJUI is making a difference. We are
defending Israel against some of the most virulent anti-Israel groups. We are
demonstrating that these groups are more easily defeated when confronted by
both Christian and Jewish activists.
More and more individuals and organizations
are recognizing that passivity in the face of assault will lead to a worsening
situation. Led by their consciences and biblical convictions, both
Christians and Jews are welcoming a first ever opportunity to embrace one
another and share their common love for Israel in an active way.
For
example, we sponsored a March and Rally for Jerusalem in
Brookline in May 2010 that drew well over 500 enthusiastic
participants. Our members have also actively participated in rallys and
events in New York City, Washington DC and in Florida. In
October 2007, CJUI volunteers demonstrated in Boston, against an anti-Israel conference being held within a church. We passed out hundreds of brochures
focusing on Israel’s history as the Middle East’s only peace-loving democracy.
