The Knesset Christian Allies Caucus is a caucus within the Israeli Knesset that seeks to build a direct line of communication, cooperation and coordination between the Knesset and Christian leaders around the world. Josh Reinstein serves as the Caucus Director. The Caucus has been co-chaired by MK David Rotem (till March 31, 2015) and MK Gila Gamliel.

Launched in 2004, Knesset Christian Allies Caucus inspired a network of Israel Allies Caucuses in over 25 parliaments around the world. Today, the Israel Allies Foundation serves as the umbrella organization helping coordinate the work of these various caucuses into a unified pro-Israel voice.

The Knesset Christian Allies Caucus has four goals:

  • To highlight the contribution of Christians in the US, Europe and worldwide to Israel's security needs and the welfare of the Jewish people.
  • To raise Israelis' awareness of Christian support for Jewish aspirations in the land of Israel.
  • To assist Israeli Christians with bureaucratic hurdles they may encounter.
  • To educate Christians about the Jewish state in order to mobilize support for Israel.
