About ECO Relationships

Our story, mission, and the heart behind our work

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

~ Ephesians 2:10

Our Mission

Everlasting Covenant Outreach (ECO) exists to equip individuals, couples, and families with biblical principles for building strong, covenant relationships, and to extend God's love through outreach that serves the hurting, advocates for the vulnerable, and strengthens communities.

Through our relationship programs, patient and family advocacy, humanitarian outreach, community support, and spiritual growth resources, we meet people where they are and walk alongside them with compassion, truth, and practical help.

Our Vision

To see a generation of believers transformed by God's design for love, walking in covenant commitment in their relationships, standing in the gap for those in crisis, serving their communities with the hands and feet of Christ, and growing deeper in faith every day. From the altar to the hospital room, from the prayer closet to the neighborhood, ECO is there.

Our Core Values

The principles that guide everything we do

Biblical Foundation

Every teaching, resource, and program is rooted in the timeless truths of Scripture. We believe God's Word provides the blueprint for healthy, thriving relationships.

Covenant Commitment

We emphasize the sacredness of covenant relationships, reflecting God's faithful, unconditional love that never gives up.

Community & Support

We foster a loving community where individuals and couples can find encouragement, accountability, and genuine connection.

Growth & Transformation

We believe in the power of God to transform lives and relationships, leading to personal growth and spiritual maturity.

Compassionate Outreach

We extend God's love beyond our walls, serving patients, families, communities, and the vulnerable with practical help and the presence of Christ.

Advocacy & Action

We stand in the gap for those who cannot stand alone, advocating for patient rights, navigating medical crises, and speaking up for the overlooked.

Our Story

ECO Relationships was born from a deep conviction that God's design for relationships is both beautiful and practical, and that His love calls us to do more than teach, but to serve. In a world where relationships are often treated as disposable and families face crises alone, we stand firm on the foundation of covenant love.

Our founder, Micheline Nelson, recognized a need for Christ-centered relationship guidance that goes beyond surface-level advice. When her own mother was hospitalized, she experienced firsthand how quickly a family can feel lost inside a system no one prepared them for. That experience gave birth to the Bedside Village, and deepened the conviction that ECO must serve the whole person: spiritually, relationally, and practically.

Today, ECO continues to grow and expand its reach, touching lives through our Singles, Engaged, and Marriage programs, advocating for patients and families through the Bedside Village, serving communities through Love In Action and ECO Community, providing wedding dresses through the Everlasting Closet, and equipping believers with daily reflections, fasting guides, and faith-building resources.

The Name “ECO”

Everlasting Covenant Outreach represents our commitment to sharing the message of God's everlasting love, in every relationship, every hospital room, every community we serve. Just as God's covenant with His people is unbreakable, we help individuals and families build lives that reflect that same steadfast commitment. The word “Outreach” is not an afterthought, it is our calling. We reach out because He first reached out to us.
