Over the years, John Hagee Ministries has given more than $80 million toward humanitarian causes in Israel. In 2006, Dr. Hagee founded, and is the National Chairman of Christians United For Israel, a grass roots national association through which every pro–Israel Christian ministry, para-church organization, or individual in America can speak and act with one voice in support of Israel in matters related to biblical issues.
Dr. Hagee gains support for this worthy cause by conducting A Night to Honor Israel in every major city in America and by organizing an annual Washington D.C.-Israel Summit where CUFI delegates have the opportunity to meet the members of congress face to face on behalf of Israel.
Christians United for Israel has grown to become the largest pro-Israel organization in the United States – with over 1.3 million members– and one of the leading Christian grassroots movements in the world.
Pastor Hagee and his lovely wife Diana are blessed with five children and thirteen grandchildren.
