Paul in the book of Acts commends us to go to the Synagogue on Shabbat to hear the WORD of G-d.

Catholics and most other christians do not worship on the Sabbath, which according to Jewish law is the last day of the week (Saturday), when God rested from all the work he had done in creation (Gen. 2:2-3). Catholics worship on the Lord’s Day, the first day of the week (Sunday, the eighth day); the day when God said "Let there be light" (Gen. 1:3); the day when Christ rose from the dead; the day when the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles (Day of Pentecost).

The early Church did not move the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday. Instead "The Sabbath, which represented the completion of the first creation, has been replaced by Sunday, which recalls the new creation inaugurated by the Resurrection of Christ"

We see evidence of this in Scripture:

The early christians worshiped on Sunday, as documented by the early Church Fathers. To cite one example:

"But every Lord’s day . . . gather yourselves together and break bread, and give thanksgiving after having confessed your transgressions, that your sacrifice may be pure. But let no one that is at variance with his fellow come together with you, until they be reconciled, that your sacrifice may not be profaned" (Didache 14 [A.D. 70]).

On the first day of the week when we gathered to break bread, Paul spoke to them because he was going to leave on the next day, and he kept on speaking until midnight (Acts 20:7). On the first day of the week each of you should set aside and save whatever one can afford, so that collections will not be going on when I come (1 Cor. 16:2). Let no one, then, pass judgment on you in matters of food and drink or with regard to a festival or new moon or Sabbath (Col. 2:16). The early christians worshiped on Sunday, as documented by the early Church Fathers. To cite one example:

"But every Lord’s day . . . gather yourselves together and break bread, and give thanksgiving after having confessed your transgressions, that your sacrifice may be pure. But let no one that is at variance with his fellow come together with you, until they be reconciled, that your sacrifice may not be profaned" (Didache 14 [A.D. 70]).

I may be wrong but my Bible say Elohim said
"let there be Light "
on the FIRST DAY of Creation

If you were familiar with the WORD of G-d you would know that
Yah'ahua rose from the dead on one of His Feast Days which is
on the day following the Shabbat following Pesach. (see Leviticus
for the Feast of First Fruits)

Yah'shua taught the meaning of Shabbat to the Tradition following Pharisees.
He celebrated Shabbat as did all of the apostles, OBTW All Jews.

Paul talks about breaking bread on the first day Yes.
There is always a meal after the sundown of the Shabbat.

Raising money was never done on Shabbat !
Always on the day following which began after sundown.

The LORD's Day has never been changed by YHvH to the pagan Day of the Sun.

There are many questions about the Authenticity of the Didache
