Our Story
SDASMS was born in 2015 in Arusha, Tanzania, when Godlisten Timotheo saw a simple yet powerful need: the Gospel deserves the best communication technology available.
We saw churches and ministries across Africa struggling with outdated tools, unreliable services, and platforms that didn't understand their unique needs. Ministries were spending more time fighting technology than sharing the Good News.
So we built SDASMS — a purpose-driven messaging platform designed specifically for digital evangelism. From SMS and WhatsApp to Voice and Email, we provide affordable, reliable, and easy-to-use tools that help ministries focus on what matters most: spreading the Gospel, one message at a time.
Today, SDASMS serves thousands of ministries across 31+ African countries, delivering over 10 million messages with industry-leading reliability. What started as one person's conviction in Arusha has grown into the continent's most trusted digital evangelism platform — and we're just getting started.
A Word from Our Founder
Founder's Note
“
When I first imagined SDASMS in 2015, I didn't see a business — I saw a calling. Growing up in Arusha, I watched churches and ministries struggle to communicate with their congregations. Important announcements were missed, prayer requests went unheard, and the Gospel — the most important message ever given — was hindered by broken tools and unreliable services.
I believed then, as I believe now, that the message of hope deserves the most reliable technology we can build. No church should be too small to afford professional communication tools, and no ministry should have to choose between spreading the Word and staying within budget.
SDASMS was built to close that gap. Every feature we ship, every message we deliver, and every partnership we form is driven by one purpose: to ensure that the Gospel reaches every corner of Africa — instantly, affordably, and reliably. This is more than technology to us. It is ministry.
