The answer is yes and no. The Sabbath is actually Saturday and was the 'Day of the Lord' observed by the Jewish people. The newly founded Christian Religion chose Sunday as the Lord's Day because Our Lord rose from the dead on a Sunday, he appeared to the apostles on a Sunday and he sent the Holy Spirit to the apostles on Pentecost Sunday. The observance of the Lord's Day, Sunday, actually begins on Saturday evening and any Mass that a Catholic attends on Saturday evening meets the obligation to 'keep holy the Lord's Day.'

The Jewish Sabbath was Saturday, however the Sabbath began Friday with sundown and ended Saturday with sundown.
