What Connect Saints is

Connect Saints is a web communication platform for churches, ministries, nonprofits, and community groups sending non-marketing messages to members. SMS is its primary channel, with email also supported. Leaders can send messages right away or schedule them, and each group can have its own phone number and member list. Members receive ordinary SMS without installing an app or logging in; their text replies go privately to group leaders rather than to other members. Organizations can create as many groups as they need. Before sending, a built-in calculator estimates message cost using message length, encoding, and selected recipients. Connect Saints says it selects the lower-cost SMS or MMS route automatically, though leaders can override that choice. Members can opt out by replying STOP, and the platform honors those requests automatically. The prepaid organization plan charges a $7 a month platform fee, plus $3 a month for each dedicated phone number and about 0.0232 USD per text. It includes unlimited groups under one organization, usage-based messaging, and prepaid credits, with no contracts. There is no free plan or mobile app.

Who it suits

It suits organizations coordinating announcements, service opportunities, care, or activities through SMS and email. It may work well for groups whose members should not need an app or login to receive messages.

Verdict
