The MSSA was originally founded in 1882 by the Sunday School Convention of Tennessee, who at the time sought to establish a "Sunday School Congress" in Tennessee; at the time, a number of states had these congresses, often called Assemblies, all of them modelled after the Chautauqua Institution in New York, which is regarded as the first of these Assemblies.

From the hundreds of such Assemblies patterned after Chautauqua Institution in New York in the late 19th century, only nine or ten remain active today.
