About Us

Influencing Our World for Life

City Life Center is a faith-based ministry. We believe God and the promises in His Word, and know He will lead and guide us.

We welcome and serve women and babies, students and other groups both locally and around the world.

Our headquarters, a stately, three-story Georgian Revival building and a two-story carriage house in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was a gift to the ministry. God’s gifts are “beyond imagination.”

Because of this gift, we have been able to host many hundreds of people for various events and trainings over the years.

God opens doors of opportunity for us to minister and serve.

Betty McGuire

​Elizabeth Neufeld

Elizabeth became a part of City Life Center while attending a Bible school in Minnesota. She recently organized a group to participate in the annual March for Life in Phoenix, where she currently resides with her husband. Elizabeth is available to encourage you to become a voice for life.

"I believe in the dignity of all life, and 'that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.' I am certain that these rights in my beloved country’s constitution belong to the mother, the father, and the tiny child being knitted together in the womb. I am pro-life because I am convinced that everyone is an image bearer of Christ at conception, and that from the beginning of existence we are created equal by the only sovereign and divine Creator God. I believe in empowering women to be able to achieve greater things than even the American dream, by telling them that as incredible, capable and fierce mothers they can also raise great leaders."
