A:Sunday was named after the sun god, just as each day of the week is named after a different god. So Sunday was a celebration of the sun god back in pagan days, but now it is the Christian sabbath.

Christians have gathered every Sunday since the very beginning of Christianity in order to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which occurred "on the first day of the week" of the Jewish calendar, our modern Sunday.
